Meet the Team.
The industry first zero-trust platform for WORKLOAD patchless mitigation
OUR MISSION IS AUTONOMOUS
SECURITY
We continue to evolve our solution to enable your teams to run at the speed of business while mitigating cybersecurity risk without the need of a human in the middle. Back to first principles – lockdown what matters, your software and your access. Prevent exploits of your vulnerabilities with a zero-trust approach and zero-touch automation. Embrace the evolution to agentic security – because milliseconds matter.
The Jellyfish Security Paradigm
Like the jellyfish, our cybersecurity approach embodies nature’s most elegant defensive strategy:
SIMPLICITY
Their simple but effective body design has remained largely unchanged over 650 million years , demonstrating
remarkable resilience and adaptability. Our zero-trust architecture embodies the same simple approach to
delivering actionable security outcomes.
VISIBILITY
Just as a jellyfish’s translucent body allows it to see in all directions while remaining nearly invisible, our
security platform provides complete visibility in your software supply chain and your workloads while
maintaining a minimal footprint. We defend against threats that others cannot see.
PROTECTION
When threatened, jellyfish respond in milliseconds with defensive mechanisms. Our autonomous protection
system operates at machine speed, guarding against threats the moment they appear.
AGENTIC
A jellyfish has a neural net distributed throughout its body and can regenerate damaged parts. Our platform
similarly uses AI agents to learn from different parts of existing systems to enable an autonomous response
to threats and enforce that only trusted software can run.
What sets us apart:
MITIGATION WITHOUT PATCHING
Stop known and unknown vulnerabilities from exploits.
Runtime protection
Enforce trust and integrity of what runs and who runs it
Deep visibility
Visibility & insights into your software supply chain risk.
Zero-touch automation
Autonomous security configuration and operation.
JUST-IN-TIME ACCESS CONTROL
Lockdown access with MFA for workloads.
The New Era of Cybersecurity: Mitigation Over Management
Don’t just manage vulnerabilities—mitigate them in real time with autonomous exposure mitigation.
What We Solve:
01
Over 90% of risk reduction and vulnerability mitigation with zero touch. Eliminate patching burnout.
02
Milliseconds matter. Prevent ransomware and zero days from exploiting vulnerable workloads.
03
Lockdown your software supply chain, verify provenance and trust of the software for improved compliance and SLA’s metrics.
04
Protect workloads and access for legacy systems. Extend the life of end-of-support software with compensating controls.
