Company Summary

For security-sensitive application developers (banks, fintech, health, enterprise), the Iota Security SDK for Android will help protect their customers from cybercrime. The Iota Security SDK for Android is able to detect 94.5% of zero-day malware. The mobile security data we gather provides valuable threat intelligence to security teams via RESTful API.
Our start is mobile, but our approach extends to the embedded OS, so our future is IoT.
