Using a global network of passive sensors, GreyNoise collects, analyzes, and labels data on IPs that scan and attack the internet, saturating security tools with noise. GreyNoise data provides security teams with an early warning system for mass exploitation attacks on the internet, real-time IP block lists they can use to defend themselves, and context to quickly eliminate noisy alerts.

Krit’s design work has been driving a positive impact for GreyNoise’s community of more than 27,000 security analysts for the past four years. As part of this acquisition, Krit’s team of technical designers and developers will join GreyNoise’s rapidly expanding product team. “After four years of working closely together, we’re thrilled to officially join the amazing team at GreyNoise,” said Andrew Askins, CEO, Krit. “In many ways, Krit and GreyNoise are a perfect match. Both teams care deeply about our people, and place a high value on user experience and beautiful design. GreyNoise has the potential over the next few years to radically change the way companies secure the perimeter of their networks, and we are proud to contribute to this effort.”
