Our mission is to transform cybersecurity by moving from a "default allow" model, where everything is permitted unless blocked, to a "default deny" model. In this approach, all actions are blocked by default, with only explicitly approved activities allowed. This shift enhances security, reduces vulnerabilities, and sets a new standard for protecting organizations from cyber threats.
