About YSecurity

We help startups and enterprises achieve compliance, pass audits, and close enterprise deals faster. Our work covers SOC 2, ISO 42001, penetration testing, due diligence and DDQs, risk management, and ongoing security programs—everything a growing company needs to earn trust from customers and investors.

Unlike traditional firms, we embed directly with your team—joining Slack, stand-ups, and customer calls to solve real problems fast. We bill in 15-minute increments with monthly caps, keeping costs predictable and progress quick.

A note from the founders

We didn't start YSecurity because the world needed another security firm. We started it because we kept watching great companies lose — not to hackers, but to more secure alternatives. A founder spends years building something real, gets in front of an enterprise buyer, and the deal stalls on a security questionnaire. That's not a security problem. That's a broken model.

We love entrepreneurs — the obsession, the speed, the refusal to accept "that's just how it's done." And we love security: the real craft, not the checkbox theater. YSecurity is where the two meet. Senior operators who embed with your team, move at deal speed, and bill in 15-minute increments under a monthly cap. Security should close deals, not stall them.

It started as just the two of us. Today it's 45+ operators from the world's most demanding companies who depend on each other to make YSecurity real. Ambitious companies deserve to win. You build. We've got your back.

At YSecurity, every operator is both a security expert and a partner in your mission. We’ve built programs at Apple, Robinhood, Uber, and Pure Storage, and now bring that same precision to teams ready to grow with confidence. What unites us is a shared belief: security should enable innovation, not slow it down.

Team

Our team includes veterans from top companies like Apple, Netflix, and Robinhood, with 200+ years of security leadership. We’ve built and protected systems in the world’s most demanding environments—and now bring that expertise to your business.
