  • Our research and findings are regularly cited by major publications such as Bloomberg, TechCrunch, Hacker News, and Dark Reading. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the primary cybersecurity agency for the US federal government, has published several cybersecurity advisories citing StepSecurity (e.g., https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widespread-supply-chain-compromise-impacting-npm-ecosystem)
  • In addition to having several enterprise customers, StepSecurity has been adopted by more than 15,000 open-source projects, including projects from Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Datadog, and others.
  • Engineers joining now get to work on hard, high-impact problems at the intersection of security, AI, and open source, with meaningful equity upside at an early stage.
