What is Cerby?
Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Alameda, California, Cerby addresses a critical gap in the cybersecurity market by providing identity and access management (IAM) solutions for applications that do not natively support modern identity protocols like SAML or SCIM. These "disconnected" or "unmanageable" applications are often overlooked by traditional IAM tools, posing significant security risks. Cerby's platform empowers organizations to secure and automate access to these legacy systems, thereby enhancing their overall security posture and operational efficiency. The company's focus on this niche segment positions it as a key player in enterprise-level cybersecurity.
