We’re obsessively passionate about protecting the people behind the data. But that's not our sole driver. New geopolitical realities, supply chain disruptions, increasing regulations and the rise of AI - these all represent new, previously unseen threats and challenges for organisations.

We're helping customers address these challenges by building a security posture that integrates with their overall objectives, with a unique iterative and risk-based approach. Either taking the fast track to obtaining certifications or effectively reducing downtimes from cyberattacks right at the same time - we empower businesses to achieve robust digital security and compliance management with 40% less effort and an efficient budget spend.

Our AI-powered platform automates repetitive tasks, simplifies compliance with complex regulations and frameworks, and helps to mitigate risks before they disrupt businesses. If needed, our in-house experts offer additional support, advising organizations on all their security and compliance challenges now and in future.

Ourstory

DataGuard Founder-1 (1) 1

After a chance meeting at a basketball camp that led to a lifelong friendship, Thomas and Kivanc noticed that the world’s rapid digitalisation created challenges for businesses to be compliant while at the same time being able to deliver valuable customer experiences to accelerate growth.

DataGuard was launched in 2018 to help SMEs and corporates navigate this reality. Bootstrapped for the first two years, Series A investment followed in 2020 which allowed rapid growth, becoming multi product, acquiring a UK-based consent and preference SaaS business, and launched in new geographies.

Fast forward to 2022, we closed our Series B funding which has helped us further accelerate our product development and expansion across Europe.

Today, our team has grown to 250+ members providing 4.000+ customers globally with digital security and compliance capabilities to enhance their operational resilience.
