UpGuard, founded in 2012, is a cybersecurity company headquartered in Australia and the United States. It develops a Cyber Risk Posture Management platform that unifies risk management across vendor supply chains, external attack surfaces, and workforces. The platform is used by over 45,000 companies worldwide to detect, assess, and remediate security risks.
