Huskeys
AI-powered edge security management and WAF optimization.
About Huskeys
Huskeys is a Tel Aviv Edge Security Management (ESM) company founded in 2025 by Unit 8200 alumni Itai Gafni (CEO) and Roy Weisfeld (CTO) that adds an agentic intelligence layer on top of existing CDN and WAF stacks instead of ripping them out. Its AI control plane unifies multi-cloud and multi-WAF edge traffic, abstracts vendor-specific syntax, and continuously adapts rules for security and business outcomes—reducing false positives that block revenue while defending APIs, bots and modern app traffic. Customers cited include TikTok, Merlin Entertainments and Hugging Face. In March 2026 Huskeys emerged from stealth with an $8 million seed from 10D, SV Angel, toDay Ventures (Merlin Ventures), CCL, Alumni Ventures, more than 30 CISOs and cybersecurity angels including Ariel Maislos, Michael Dolinsky, Benny Schnaider, Ofer Ben-Noon, Maty Siman and Slavik Markovich.
