SafeStack Description

SafeStack is a secure development training platform founded in 2020 that provides organizations with education and resources to build secure software. The company focuses on helping development teams integrate security practices into their software development processes through training programs designed to fit into existing workflows regardless of team size or project complexity. The platform delivers secure development training aimed at changing behavior and building security awareness among software developers. SafeStack's approach emphasizes building "safe" software that protects against unknown threats, not just securing against known vulnerabilities. The company serves organizations of all sizes, from small teams to large enterprises, with a customer base that includes over 80 organizations as of 2022. SafeStack operates with a "for profit, with purpose" model, believing that all organizations have the right to be safe and secure online. The company has expanded from its base in New Zealand and Australia to target the United States market. The team consists of approximately 20 people spread across two countries, led by founders Laura Bell Main (CEO), Erica Anderson (COO), and Jigar Patel (CTO). The company has received backing from investors including Blackbird, Carthona Capital, K1W1, NAB Ventures, NZ Growth Capital Partners, and Jelix Ventures. SafeStack also runs an apprenticeship program for software developers, reflecting their commitment to creating pathways into the technology industry.
