DUBAI - Network intelligence startup 31 Concept announced Monday it has emerged from stealth mode following a $6 million pre-seed funding round secured in December 2024.
The Dubai-based company, which has grown to 35 employees, plans to unveil its flagship platform at the ISS Asia 2025 Conference in Singapore during the first week of September. The platform is designed to provide real-time inspection and classification of network traffic, including encrypted communications.
According to a press release, 31 Concept’s technology aims to help governments, regulators, law enforcement agencies, and large enterprises gain visibility into digital communications and infrastructure activity through packet-level analytics combined with AI-driven intelligence.
"We’ve spent the past year building in silence, and now we’re ready to show the world what we’ve been working on," said Misha Hanin, CEO of 31 Concept.
The company also announced the establishment of 31C Research, a division focused on innovation in intelligent traffic analysis, encrypted data interpretation, and quantum-resistant security frameworks. The research team includes PhDs in quantum cryptography, mathematics professors, and cybersecurity experts.
Boriss Heismann, CTO of 31C, stated that the research division aims to make "fundamental breakthroughs" by combining "rigorous science" with "real-world urgency."
The company indicated that 31C Research plans to open-source selected internal tools and research assets on GitHub to support collaboration across the cybersecurity ecosystem.
The startup’s platform debut at ISS Asia 2025 will be limited to a closed-door session specifically for government, regulatory, and law enforcement audiences.
