Endari, a newly launched cybersecurity company, specializes in providing solutions for startups and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Founded by cybersecurity expert Nils Puhlmann, who serves as the CEO, the company recently emerged from stealth mode with a successful seed funding round of $4 million. Endari offers a comprehensive cybersecurity maturity model designed to protect customers’ assets and data without requiring a full-time security team.
The company emphasizes a supportive approach that not only accelerates the implementation of security programs but also improves the overall security posture of its clients. By doing so, Endari allows businesses to focus on their core operations while ensuring robust security coverage at every stage of growth. To achieve this, the company provides experienced professionals and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) advisors to assist startups in attaining cybersecurity maturity.
Endari’s service offerings are tailored to the size of each company and include various capabilities such as identity and access management, device management, threat management, network management, security operations, and incident response, among others. This flexibility allows businesses to choose plans that suit their specific needs, ensuring comprehensive protection against potential cyber threats.
In addition to its core services, Endari conducted a survey involving 300 senior decision-makers from tech startups established within the past five years. The results revealed a paradox where many respondents expressed confidence in their cybersecurity stance, yet nearly half admitted to a lack of awareness regarding cybersecurity risks. Furthermore, only 2% planned to develop a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy in the coming year, highlighting a significant gap in preparedness despite a general sense of confidence.
