Ofir Stein

Ofir Stein is the CTO and Co-Founder of Apono, a modern access security platform built on just-in-time, dynamic privilege access management. Ofir brings over 15 years of experience in infrastructure and security, beginning with his service in the Israeli Air Force before moving into technology roles spanning on-prem, cloud-native, and AI-driven environments.

Apono was founded after Ofir and his co-founder conducted extensive interviews with CISOs and security professionals, surfacing a critical gap: access management represented the primary attack vector for bad actors, yet existing solutions were slow to implement and slow to deliver value. Ofir and his co-founder built Apono to address that directly. He is based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
