We at Security Compass are on a mission to create a world where we can trust technology by enabling organizations to shift left and build secure applications by design. Our flagship product, SD Elements, helps organizations to reduce cyber risks by taking an automated, developer-centric approach to threat modeling, secure development, and compliance. This, combined with our industry-leading e-Learning offerings, allows us to support our customers in accelerating software time-to-market without sacrificing security.
We are continuing our growth trajectory as the worldwide cybersecurity market grows to exceed US$330 Billion by 2027. We are well positioned in the industry as a leader and trusted partners in the development of secure software.
