Sydney, Australia, March 19, 2025 / CyberNewsWire / -- Australian cybersecurity software company Knocknoc has received a seed funding round from US venture capital firm Decibel Partners, with support from CoAct and SomethingReal. The funds will be used for go-to-market strategies, hiring new staff, customer onboarding, and product development. The company has also appointed Adam Pointon as its new CEO.

Adam Pointon stated that the opportunity presented by Knocknoc is limitless, as virtually any organization could benefit from its security solutions.

Knocknoc optimizes network infrastructure to reduce risks by linking user access with their SSO authentication status. The company protects critical assets through network connections activated only at the right time, eliminating attack surfaces and ensuring regulatory compliance. With this approach, Knocknoc prevents potential attackers from connecting to devices and applications prone to zero-day vulnerabilities.

Knocknoc's solutions are used to protect VPNs, firewalls, IP cameras, payroll systems, file transfer applications, protected servers, and other network services. It is also compatible with cloud infrastructure and can be used on internal networks to add multi-factor authentication to legacy systems, thereby improving regulatory compliance.

Patrick Gray, founder and advisor at Decibel Partners, has also been appointed to Knocknoc's board of directors. Gray highlighted the ease of implementing Knocknoc's technology and the immediate cybersecurity benefits for organizations.

Knocknoc is already operating in critical infrastructure sectors in Australia and the United States, including telecommunications networks and media companies. Its founders are Andrew Foster, David Kempe, and Adam Pointon.
