Security Innovation
is an established leader in the software security and cryptography
space. For over a decade the company has provided products, training and
consulting services to help organizations build and deploy more secure
software systems and protect data communications.
As data security concerns grow, and with insecure applications being the
source of approximately 85% of data breaches, the need for
software-focused risk analysis and mitigation expertise also grows - but
experts are very difficult to find. Security Innovation focuses on the
software development process itself, which allows the company to address
the root cause of security problems and aid its clients in the
development and deployment of robust and secure applications.
Security Innovation’s solutions are built upon 15 years of research and
can be applied to a variety of software systems including Web,
client/server, embedded and mobile. The company is privately-held and
headquartered in Boston, MA, USA.
