About k9 Security

Why

AWS Security is very powerful, but too difficult to use. That’s why we’re simplifying secure delivery with usable security policy automation and an insightful access audit service that works for Cloud Engineers and the rest of the team.

Mission

k9 Security’s mission is to help organizations using the Cloud to improve the security and manage risks to the organization and its customers.

Vision

k9 Security’s vision is to enable technology teams to assess and improve the security of their Cloud resources and data confidently and quickly by enhancing the modern delivery and operational tools they already use with advanced security and risk management capabilities.

How

k9 Security helps Cloud teams protect data in Amazon Web Services by helping them understand their risk position and improve their security policies.  Unlike many security tools, k9 puts actionable information in the hands of Cloud and DevOps engineers who build and maintain security policies.

Team

k9 is built by people with deep DevOps and Security experience.
