Semperis, an identity security and cyber resilience company based in Hoboken, New Jersey, said on February 4, 2026 that it had acquired MightyID, a company that backs up, restores and migrates data held in cloud identity platforms such as Okta and Ping Identity.
Neither company disclosed the price. Israeli business site Calcalist estimated the deal at about $20 million, a figure the companies did not confirm. MightyID had no public record of venture capital or other outside funding, according to SiliconANGLE.
Semperis said MightyID's technology will be folded into its own identity resilience platform. MightyID's chief operating officer, Chris Steinke, will lead the business inside Semperis, according to GovInfoSecurity.
What MightyID built
MightyID focused on a narrow problem: what happens when the system that lets employees sign in breaks or is attacked. Its software takes continuous backups of the users, groups, policies and settings held in a company's identity provider, and can restore either the whole configuration or individual items, SiliconANGLE reported.
The product also handled failover to a second identity tenant if the primary one went down, and migration between providers, including moves between Okta and Microsoft Entra ID. Semperis said MightyID was named in Gartner's 2025 guidance on workforce access management.
The company was carved out of Tevora, a cybersecurity consultancy, in June 2023 and is based in Irvine, California, GovInfoSecurity reported. Ray Zadjmool, who has run Tevora since 2015, led MightyID from the start and is staying at Tevora. Semperis chief executive Mickey Bresman put MightyID's headcount at roughly 12 to 15 people. Existing customers, including large enterprises, already used its Okta backup and recovery tools.
“Effective defense means resilience—not just prevention—so operations can continue, even under attack.”
Why Semperis is buying
Semperis built its business on protecting and recovering Microsoft Active Directory and Entra ID, the directory systems that MightyID's Chris Steinke said form the infrastructure backbone for 90% of businesses worldwide. As more organisations add cloud identity providers alongside Microsoft, Semperis said it wanted coverage of all the major systems: Active Directory, Entra ID, Okta and Ping.
Bresman told GovInfoSecurity that attackers in cloud environments typically try to compromise the identity tenant itself, and that the picture gets harder as companies add more identity providers. He described MightyID as giving Semperis the completeness of its story.
In its announcement Semperis listed four areas the combined platform would cover: continuous exposure management against attacks that move from on-premises identity systems into the cloud, automated rollback of malicious changes, fast recovery of hybrid identity systems, and crisis management to help companies return to normal operations after an attack.
What happens to the product
The first step is to bring MightyID's Okta backup and recovery into the Semperis platform next to its existing Active Directory and Entra ID recovery tools, GovInfoSecurity reported. A second phase is planned to add posture assessment, indicators of exposure and attack path analysis for Okta. Support for Ping Identity is on the roadmap.
Semperis also said it plans a layer that treats a person's identities across different providers as a single entity, giving security teams one view of hybrid and multi-cloud setups. The companies did not say whether the MightyID name would be kept.
The buyer
Semperis was founded in 2015 and is privately held. Calcalist reported that it employs about 600 people, around 150 of them in Tel Aviv, where co-founder Matan Liberman runs the local branch. The company says more than 1,000 organisations use its products, including more than a quarter of the 100 largest US companies, with customers in more than 40 countries.
For MightyID, the sale came less than three years after it was spun out. Its customers move to a larger owner that also runs an identity forensics and incident response team, while Semperis adds MightyID's backup, failover and migration tools for Okta and Ping, the two cloud identity providers named in the announcement.
