'''Cato Networks''' is an Israeli cybersecurity company co-founded in 2015 by [[Shlomo Kramer]] and Gur Shatz. Kramer, previously a co-founder of [[Check Point Software Technologies]] and [[Imperva]], is chief executive. Greylock Partners has described him as having honed his cybersecurity skills during military service "in an Israeli army intelligence unit that over the years produced many of the country's best-known entrepreneurs".<ref name="Greylock">[https://greylock.com/blog/the-godfather-of-israeli-cybersecurity/ CATO: The Godfather of Israeli Cybersecurity Does It Again], ''Greylock'', 18 April 2024.</ref> Check Point sources separately state that Kramer served in [[Unit 8200]].<ref name="Globes2024">Assaf Gilead, [https://en.globes.co.il/en/article-check-point-names-nadav-zafrir-next-ceo-1001485073 Check Point names Nadav Zafrir next CEO], ''Globes'', 24 July 2024.</ref><br />

Cato sells cloud-based secure networking (SASE) for hybrid work. In September 2025 ''Ctech'' reported that Kramer's firm was acquiring [[Aim Security]], an AI security startup "founded by Unit 8200 veterans", for an estimated $300-350 million in cash and shares. The same report said Cato employed about 1,400 people, half in Israel, and had raised about $1.1 billion.<ref name="CtechAim">Sophie Shulman, [https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/7pzhe3mrd Cyber unicorn Cato acquires Aim Security for $350 million amid AI cyber arms race], ''Ctech'', 3 September 2025.</ref><br />
