🎉 Secfix has raised a $3.8 million seed round to automate security compliance
Helping companies to build trust and grow their business efficiently
How we got here
Secfix was founded in Berlin in 2021 by Fabiola, Grigory and Branko after they saw small and medium-sized businesses struggling to achieve ISO 27001 and TISAX certification. Within just a year, Secfix secured $3.8 million Seed funding and guided their clients through the certification process with a 100% success rate in audits. Today, Secfix helps all businesses across Europe to achieve and maintain compliance.
In the beginning, there was requestee
Fabiola and Grigory were working on their startup requestee in 2020, a marketplace for ethical hackers, when they realized there is a much bigger problem arising for small and medium-sized businesses around the World. The usual methods for preparing for an ISO 27001 or TISAX compliance audit are time-consuming, cost-intensive and error-prone.
The evolution of requestee to Secfix
The founders took upon themselves to simplify the lives of small and medium-sized businesses by enabling them to become secure and compliant easy and fast. For that, they brought Branko, Co-Founder & CISO, who had over 12 years of experience in implementing security standards for small companies.
