Announcement: Pistachio Raises €3.25m!
Big things are happening at Pistachio! We've secured €3.25m in funding to amplify our cybersecurity efforts. Read about our mission to empower digital freedom of movement.
This is a busy and exciting time at Pistachio. The commercial team is signing up and onboarding new customers on a daily basis, the tech team is releasing new features almost every week, and the finance and operations teams are working hard to ensure that everything continues to run smoothly behind the scenes.
In order to support this growth and move even faster, we decided it was time to raise money. We therefore are very excited to announce that we recently raised €3.25m in a fundraising round led by Signals VC!
This financial boost isn't something small – it's a strong endorsement of our goal to improve cybersecurity and enhance digital experiences. With these funds, we're poised to amplify our efforts, enhance our capabilities, and reach new heights in safeguarding the digital realm.
Pistachio’s Vision
Pistachio is about empowering digital freedom of movement. We want to enable people to navigate the digital world with confidence, not fear. And we want to do that while fitting into people’s daily lives.
We therefore built Pistachio, our flagship product, around a single principle: seamlessness. IT admins should not have to spend time following up with people to get them to complete their training, picking out phishing emails, grouping users, and whitelisting domains. And users shouldn’t have to waste time figuring out a training platform, logging in, watching videos, and answering questions. People have a job to do, and security awareness shouldn’t distract from that. Everyone’s digital journey deserves simplicity.
We’re so committed to our vision of seamlessness that we even made our onboarding seamless. You can sign up online in minutes, and we offer a free 14-day trial so you can see how it works for yourself.
Our Team
Given that Pistachio is focused on human cybersecurity risk, we think about people as much as we think about technology. And behind Pistachio is a team of excellent people that make everything happen.
As we celebrate this significant milestone, we also celebrate the people who make it all possible. Every team member brings their unique skills, unwavering dedication, and passion to our journey. It's also essential to give a special shoutout to our founders, Awais Aziz and Joe Jones, for their exceptional leadership since the company's inception. Together, we are not only reshaping cybersecurity but also fostering a vibrant work culture built on teamwork and excellence.
With support from our investors, hard work from our team, and our shared goal of a safer digital future, we’re ready to lead the way in seamless cybersecurity. Join the movement towards a simpler, safer digital world with Pistachio.
We believe in a learn-by-doing approach over snooze-worthy videos.
Instead, Pistachio tailors real-world scenarios so your team can build their cyber skills in a safe environment.

“We lacked confidence that employees would recognise today’s phishing threats or respond correctly. Since using the Pistachio platform, they are more attentive and proactive in identifying potential risks. The solution is easy to manage, quick to implement, and highly effective.
“The platform is easy to implement and provides clear insights into employee phishing awareness. Its bite-sized learning encourages participation, saves administration time, and allows us to focus more on real threat detection.”
“We were looking for a practical way to improve cybersecurity awareness across the organization. Pistachio made training simple and engaging, and we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in employee awareness with minimal effort.”
“Pistachio removed the burden of planning campaigns, collecting data, and evaluating results. The program challenges each employee at their own level and provides clear, simple reporting. Pistachio has streamlined our awareness training and strengthened our organization’s cybersecurity.”
“Our goal was to help employees better recognize phishing emails and avoid malicious links. Pistachio made this easy and engaging, and we’ve seen a clear improvement in detection, fewer clicks on phishing links, and reduced data disclosure. With minimal ongoing maintenance, it’s an effective and low-effort solution.”
“Within weeks, Presence had flagged several incidents that could have otherwise been missed, including employees forwarding company data to personal accounts during offboarding. The alerts are reliable and actionable, so we've built a full investigation process around them. Although I was skeptical at first, the value was obvious almost immediately.”
“Pistachio has reduced our manual workload to zero with its automated phishing simulations and in‑box delivery of scenario‑based trainings. This has allowed our team to dedicate time to other important security initiatives while Pistachio handles our Security Awareness program seamlessly.”
“Presence automatically detects suspicious behaviour and gives us the visibility we need without constant manual oversight. Within the first few weeks we were already seeing alerts that would have otherwise gone unnoticed as the system learns what is usual and unusual behaviour for our environment.”
“Before Pistachio, security awareness was something we could only offer to a few customers. Today it’s part of every managed service we deliver, and we haven’t had to grow the team to make that happen.”
