Doppel provides an AI-powered social engineering defense platform that aims to protect individuals and organizations from various forms of social engineering attacks. The company offers three solutions, Digital Risk Protection (DRP), Human Risk Management (HRM), and Email Security, unified on a shared threat intelligence layer to protect organizations and individuals from AI-powered impersonation, phishing, fraud, and other forms of social engineering attacks.
With the rapid adoption of generative AI, cyber threats targeting businesses and individuals have become increasingly sophisticated.

MUIP believes that robust security technologies are essential to maximizing the benefits that AI can bring to society and industry. By combining proprietary threat intelligence with advanced AI capabilities, Doppel is developing innovative approaches to address the evolving security challenges of the AI era and is well positioned for continued growth in the global cybersecurity market.

About Doppel
Doppel is the Frontier AI Social Engineering Defense (SED) platform, protecting individuals and brands from AI-powered impersonation, phishing, fraud, and social engineering through three solutions unified on a shared intelligence layer. Digital Risk Protection (DRP) detects threats across multiple channels, links alerts into a real-time threat graph, and delivers AI-driven infrastructure disruption. Human Risk Management (HRM) turns those live threats into phishing simulation campaigns and next-generation security awareness training, measuring and reducing employee risk by user and team. Email Security adds inline protection, using a self-healing, agentic architecture that tunes detection policies, investigates threats, closes detection gaps, and uses the Doppel Threat Graph to stop inbox attacks and disrupt the infrastructure behind them.
