Descope

The founding story of Descope is a testament to innovation through experience, spearheaded by eight co-founders sharing a common bond. The founding team worked together for decades, eventually joining forces to create Demisto, a leader in SOAR that was acquired for $560 million by Palo Alto Networks in 2019.

At each company, these fellow founders built authorization and user management systems in-house, living through the pain of maintaining and scaling these systems as the companies grew. Considering their next collective venture, they launched Descope in 2022, a drag-and-drop CIAM platform that solves this problem by liberating developers from the complexities of authentication systems.
