About Us:

We make it easier to not get hacked.

Every day people sign up for online services, enter their personal data, and put themselves at risk. We work to enable these services to be better protected, making sure new vulnerabilities are found and closed rapidly before data can be stolen.

We do this with a powerful but easy to use platform that is low on noise and high on trust, information, and context – so when we say it’s critical, companies know they have to act fast.

In the past few years, we have grown rapidly in product capability, customer base, revenue, and number of employees. The next few years promise more of the same, with plenty of growth opportunities for us and our teams!
