Dapple Security is a cybersecurity company founded on the principle that privacy and security should not be mutually exclusive, and that security features should be accessible without premium pricing. The company was founded by Gadalia Montoya Weinberg O'Bryan, a former NSA cryptomathematician with a graduate degree in Mathematics from UCLA, and co-founded by Keith Bucher, whose background spans encryption, data governance, and identity management across Fortune 500 and government clients. The company's technical focus areas, as reflected in its founders' expertise, include encryption, data governance, identity management, and key management. The CTO has contributed to open-source projects in these domains. The company's advisory board includes Will Ackerly, CTO and Co-Founder of Virtru and a former NSA technologist who led development of the Trusted Data Format (TDF), an open standard published by the US Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Dapple Security is based in Colorado and has received recognition in startup and innovation communities, including participation in the 2024 Colorado Inno Madness bracket. The company targets both businesses and individuals, with a stated commitment to not charging a premium for security or privacy features in its products. The founding team's collective background suggests a focus on cryptography-driven data protection and identity-centric security solutions.
