Find and analyze every reachable server and device on the Internet. Censys is a platform that helps information security practitioners discover, monitor, and analyze devices that are accessible from the Internet. We regularly probe every public IP address and popular domain names, curate and enrich the resulting data, and make it intelligible through an interactive search engine and API. Enterprises use Censys to understand their network attack surfaces. CERTs and security researchers use it to discover new threats and assess their global impact. From the creators of ZMap, the leading Internet-wide scanner, our mission is to make security be driven by data.

MASV is file sharing for creative workflows with big data demands. The type of projects that require hundreds of gigabytes—even terabytes to be delivered on deadline, regardless of location. We are trusted by film, television, digital media, and event professionals to deliver large copyrighted files and high-resolution assets faster than the competition. Our business is built on the core principles of speed, simplicity, security, and flexibility. As such, we’ve developed tooling to reflect these principles: - MASV Transfer: Our signature browser and desktop apps for fast, encrypted delivery of really big files. - MASV Portals: A unique share link to request and collect files from contributors anywhere in the world. - MASV API: A robust and flexible API that can fit into any custom developer-led workflow. - Automation: A Watch Folder feature to easily automate file upload, download, and cloud backup. - Cloud Connect: Our ever-growing roster of integrations with popular cloud storage apps. - Pay As You Go: A flexible and open pricing plan with no annual or monthly commitments. We are on a mission to make data transfer painless for creators so they can spend more time on what’s next; be it a new task, a passion project, or a well-deserved break. Join us. ✌️

At Maze, we're building a new type of cybersecurity platform, built from the ground up to use LLMs and AI Agents to make decisions, instead of pre-defined logic.

Footprint is the agentic platform that learns your compliance program, and runs it end-to-end. Our technology helps compliance teams clear their alert backlog faster, with deeper context and better judgment. Financial crime is growing faster than any risk team can hire against it, and most investigations still happen the old way: one analyst, one case, a pile of PDFs and a dozen disconnected tools. We built Percy to change that. Percy doesn't impose a workflow. It learns yours, converts your policies and procedures into agents line by line, and runs them the same way every time, with a full audit trail. When a regulator asks how a decision was made, the answer is already written. Every investigation is grounded in the vendors and data sources our customers already trust, like LexisNexis, ComplyAdvantage and government registries. Each one is committed to an organizational memory that compounds and adapts as procedures change. Our customers include FDIC- and OCC-regulated banks and fintechs such as Bilt, Nuvei and MoonPay. In September we announced a $25M Series B led by QED, with Index, Commerce Ventures and others. We're using it to double our engineering and sales teams in New York and San Francisco.
