Data has never been more valuable and vulnerable. As cybercriminals become more sophisticated and regulations become stricter, organizations struggle to answer one key question: “Is my data safe?”

We’ve building the industry’s first fully autonomous data security platform to help our customers dramatically reduce risk with minimal human effort.
At Varonis, we move fast. We’re an ultra-collaborative company with brilliant people who care deeply about the details. Together, we’re solving interesting and complex puzzles to keep the world’s data safe.
We work in a flexible, hybrid model, so you can choose the home-office balance that works best for you.
