Talon Cyber Security was an Israeli cybersecurity startup that pioneered the Enterprise Browser category. Its Chromium-based secure browser gave security teams deep visibility and control over SaaS and web activity across managed and unmanaged endpoints, addressing the security challenges of distributed and hybrid workforces, contractors, and BYOD scenarios. Founded in 2021 by Unit 8200 alumni Ofer Ben-Noon (ex-Argus Cyber Security) and Ohad Bobrov (ex-Lacoon Mobile Security), Talon won the RSA Conference Innovation Sandbox contest in 2022 and raised $143M before being acquired by Palo Alto Networks in late 2023. Following the acquisition, Talon's technology was integrated into Palo Alto's Prisma SASE platform.
