a16z-backed Toka wants to help US agencies hack into security cameras and other IoT devices


An Israeli startup specializing in penetrating IoT devices says it's hiring to "support new business growth" in the US government market.

Toka is also seeking a customer success engineer under its North America team that is responsible for helping its clients with “deployment, training, and enablement.” Experience working with federal law enforcement is considered an advantage. Toka has sought to avoid scrutiny on Israeli spyware outfits like the US-sanctioned NSO Group, publicly promising that it only does business with governments from a “select list of countries” with good track records on civil liberties and corruption. “Assisting us in this process are two distinguished outside advisors: Professor Peter Schuck of Yale Law School and Israel Prize-winner Jacob Frenkel, currently Chairman of JP Morgan Chase International and a former IMF official.”
