Company
Metapacket
Selective web gateway stopping malware exfiltration
We built a proxy platform that inspects outbound web traffic to detect and block malware from exfiltrating data. Our product effectively makes malware useless by preventing it from sending stolen information out of enterprise networks.
We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based there.
Being in San Francisco puts us close to enterprise customers and security partners, and it's where both of us live and work full-time on Metapacket.
