Hack The Box and Semperis Form Strategic Technology Alliance to Advance Enterprise Identity Resilience

Alliance combines identity-security expertise and hands-on cyber readiness to help enterprises build operational resilience in the AI era

Hack The Box (HTB), the global leader in AI cybersecurity readiness, and Semperis , the identity-driven cyber resilience and crisis management company, today announced a strategic technology alliance. The alliance brings together Semperis’ hybrid identity-security expertise with HTB’s hands-on cyber readiness platform, supporting security teams with the skills, workflows, and response capabilities needed to prepare for and respond to identity-based threats. Together, the companies will support security teams through hands-on training, cyber exercises and joint industry initiatives focused on building stronger operational resilience.

As hybrid environments, AI-driven transformation and operational complexity are reshaping enterprise security, identity has become one of the most important areas that defenders need to protect. Most organizations can’t detect, respond to and remediate cyberattacks against Active Directory, Entra ID, Okta and Ping Security before they become outages. This alliance reflects growing industry demand for security strategies that combine technology investment with measurable workforce readiness.

Both companies a belief that improving cyber resilience is an industry-wide responsibility. Semperis’ “force for good” approach to cybersecurity aligns with HTB’s mission to help organizations strengthen cyber skills through hands-on training. As identity threats continue to evolve amid AI-driven complexity, organizations need security teams prepared to respond quickly and with confidence.

“Identity resilience is not just a tooling challenge. It is a people and readiness challenge,” said Haris Pylarinos, Founder and CEO of Hack The Box. “Semperis brings deep identity-security expertise and a strong commitment to doing what is right for the industry. Together, we can help security teams turn identity-risk insight into hands-on practice, stronger workflows and a more confident response.”

Hack The Box and Semperis will focus on:

“At Semperis, our ‘Force for Good’ mission means doing right by defenders and the broader cybersecurity community,” said Marty Momdjian, Semperis General Manager, Ready1 & Strategic Initiatives. “As organizations adapt to new AI-related security threats, they need both the visibility into identity risk and the human skills to respond effectively. Our alliance with Hack The Box reflects that commitment by helping defenders strengthen identity resilience in practice. Through community tools like Purple Knight and Forest Druid, which are used by tens of thousands of companies worldwide, we’re helping organizations better understand identity threats and prepare their teams to respond.”
