Who we are

2022

Irfaan Santoe—a seasoned enterprise CISO, and Matthew Fox—an experienced leader in the cyber startup world, met at a startup pitch competition in The Hague, Netherlands.

Irfaanʼs deep expertise in application security combined with Mattʼs background in scaling startups quickly led to a conversation about the challenges the cybersecurity industry was facing, particularly around managing fragmented and often misinterpreted application security (AppSec) data.

They shared a vision for a solution that could empower CISOs with the ability to manage their security programs with greater precision and confidence. This vision ultimately led to the founding of RiskApp, a platform designed to streamline and enhance AppSec data management.

Shortly after, founding engineer Rafael Carvalho joined the team, bringing the technical expertise necessary to transform this vision into reality. Together, the trio combined their complementary skill sets to build a solution that simplifies and strengthens application security for organizations across industries.

RiskApp

was born from a chance encounter between two cybersecurity experts.
