In the increasingly high-stakes world of cybersecurity, timing is everything. And few are beating the clock like BforeAI.
The France-based cybersecurity firm has been named a 2025 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum (WEF)—a nod to its breakthrough in predictive attack intelligence. Among just 100 startups selected globally—and the only cybersecurity company on the list—BforeAI is gaining recognition for its ability to detect and neutralize digital threats before they ever hit the radar.
Why It Matters: From Reactive to Predictive Security
While most cybersecurity platforms still operate reactively—detecting threats after damage begins—BforeAI’s PreCrime™ platform flips that script. Built on behavioral AI, it monitors 98% of the Internet, spotting patterns and anomalies with enough foresight to predict attacks an average of 18 days before they launch, all while keeping false positives to an industry-low 0.05%.
That level of preemptive intelligence could radically change how enterprises defend digital assets, especially in a landscape where threats are more automated, distributed, and frequent than ever.
“We’re honored to be recognized by the World Economic Forum,” said Luigi Lenguito, co-founder and CEO of BforeAI. “This validates our mission to stop cybercrime before it starts—and protect the 25 million+ users our platform shields daily.”
What the WEF Nod Signals
The WEF’s Technology Pioneers initiative is no PR fluff. Launched in 2000 and celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2025, it’s a gateway for early-stage companies to shape policy, global partnerships, and the future of tech at scale. Past alumni include household names like Google, Airbnb, and Spotify.
Selection criteria go beyond tech: WEF favors mission-driven startups creating tangible societal impact, operating with scalable business models, and demonstrating industry leadership.
As a newly minted Pioneer, BforeAI will now join WEF sessions, workshops, and leadership summits—bringing its voice (and data) to the world’s most high-profile tech policy tables.
Why BforeAI Stands Out
In a crowded and noisy cybersecurity market, BforeAI’s edge is its behavioral predictive intelligence—designed not just to react to known threats but to forecast and automatically block unknown ones. That includes infrastructure-based risks, phishing campaigns, and domain abuse, long before they enter an enterprise’s perimeter.
BforeAI’s PreCrime platform—a name that channels Minority Report energy but delivers real-world results—represents a key evolution in Digital Risk Protection Services (DRPS). It defends not just data and networks, but brands, employees, and reputations. And it does so without the noise and burnout common with traditional threat intelligence systems.
With cybersecurity fatigue setting in across industries, this kind of predictive clarity could become the standard, not the exception.
The Bigger Picture: AI and the Future of Cyber Defense
As organizations begin deploying AI across operations, from generative models to intelligent automation, security architectures must keep pace. Platforms like BforeAI’s are increasingly essential—not just for prevention but for regulatory compliance, digital trust, and business continuity in a hyper-connected economy.
With cyber threats expected to cost the global economy $10.5 trillion annually by 2025 (according to Cybersecurity Ventures), preemptive AI may be the only path forward.
