Keep Aware

Keep Aware is a browser security company founded in 2022, focused on securing how users interact with web browsers within organizational environments. The company develops browser-based security solutions that provide visibility and response capabilities against threats that originate at the browser level — an area the company refers to as the "browser blind spot." The platform is designed to identify and mitigate threats that bypass traditional perimeter-based security controls by targeting end users directly through the browser. Keep Aware emphasizes a human-centric security model, recognizing that employees across all departments — not just IT teams — play a role in an organization's overall security posture. To that end, the company provides tools and insights delivered at the point of user interaction (i.e., at the point of click). Keep Aware's team includes experts with backgrounds in network and email security. The company positions its solution as an extension of an organization's existing security team, offering ongoing monitoring and awareness of the evolving browser threat landscape. The company is backed by venture capital firms LiveOak Ventures and Runtime Ventures, as well as angel investors with backgrounds in the cybersecurity industry. Keep Aware targets businesses seeking to protect employees who conduct modern work primarily through web browsers, addressing threats that traditional endpoint, network, and email security tools may not fully cover.
