History

Co-founders Gaby Friedlander and Avi Amos founded ObserveIT in Israel in 2006. ObserveIT initially focused on monitoring remote vendor monitoring, but now has expanded its focus to monitoring employees, privileged users and third parties in order to detect insider threats. The company grew until 2014, when Bain Capital invested $20 Million into ObserveIT, and opened up its U.S. headquarters in Boston, MA. Now under the leadership of CEO Paul Brady, ObserveIT is currently on its version 5.8.3 release.
