Ce que fait JumpWire

JumpWire is a data protection platform that adds advanced data security controls between APIs, applications and databases. JumpWire automatically identifies sensitive properties inside large data sets and gives developers full control over which people and applications can access or update records containing sensitive info. Examples uses include restricting who can read customer PII to members of the customer service team, giving on-call engineers elevated access to production, or splitting user records between regions for GDPR purposes. JumpWire’s approach to securing data in-place minimizes the risk of data leaks exposing sensitive information or mishandling by other applications and vendors. The exact security scheme applied to data is defined by policies that align with an organization’s existing InfoSec program. JumpWire helps companies who maintain information security with compliance programs such as SOC or HIPAA. They are processing sensitive data, often from their own customers, and exceed security best practices as a competitive advantage. JumpWire provides defense at depth to data and sits alongside access controls and Layer 4 encryption to provide a comprehensive data security solution. JumpWire is unique from solutions such as data vaults by installing inside our customers’ own infrastructure and clouds. It is interoperable with existing applications and databases, which eliminates the need for large data migrations or code refactoring. Lower-level approaches to data security, such as encryption at rest, are too blunt and lack the ability to differentiate between properties in the data itself. Its scope is limited to physical storage, and security is lost as soon as an application or query loads the data.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Dynamic access controls for all data and databases

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a data protection platform that sits between applications and databases to enforce fine-grained access controls on sensitive data properties. It automatically finds sensitive fields and lets developers restrict who can see or modify them, based on policies aligned with security programs like SOC or HIPAA. This runs inside customers' own clouds and infrastructure, avoiding costly migrations or rewrites.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York and are fully remote. After YC we plan to remain remote but officially based in New York, NY.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Being remote with a base in New York lets us hire broadly and stay connected to a major business hub and security industry customers without relocating the whole team.
