Mission

Our mission is to provide our clients with comprehensive solutions for cyber risk management. Our solutions are based on innovative technologies developed by us and combine cutting edge tools, services, and training to offer our clients the assurance they need against continuously evolving and increasing cybersecurity threats.

Our Story

We were founded in Switzerland in 2017 with a focus on creating innovative technologies and tools, and advanced cybersecurity training that could provide the Security and Privacy assurance needed by modern enterprises. The development of our technology and tools has been enabled and supported by cutting-edge European and Swiss research projects, and we are proud of our extensive track-record of participation in more than 50 such projects.

Today, our DNA remains rooted in advanced R&D activity. This allows us to bring cutting edge knowledge, tools and technology to the market, whilst scaling up our commercial activity and offering customised cybersecurity solutions and services. Our technologies are designed and developed in-house. This gives us limitless flexibility to address the needs of our clients.

Our tools incorporate advanced machine learning, AutoML, and generative AI to detect sophisticated and evolving vulnerabilities, threats and attacks, process complex events, and generate cybersecurity training scenarios. Hence, we can provide our clients with the assurance they need against cyber risks.

Our cutting edge tools are offered through a comprehensive and fully customisable range of services, which are delivered by our top-class cyber security experts. Hence at Sphynx, we don’t just provide cybersecurity, we deliver the security and privacy assurance that our clients need against rising cyber risks.
