Our take

Data protection is an essential part of maintaining an online business, but many organizations are misled into believing that they must only protect their own use of their first-party data. However, a large amount of enterprise risk is in fact associated with the third and fourth party usage of this sensitive data, and software that monitors this is relatively uncommon.

UpGuard provides a digital platform for the management of third-party risk, providing dashboards that facilitate the monitoring of data being used by vendors, security questionnaires, and other third parties. The company provides three product packages that focus on risk management, data breaches and security services, each designed with visual interfacing to provide accessible and actionable insights.

Whilst many software packages on the market aim to protect internal security and data breaches for clients, UpGuard has found a gap in the market by automatically identifying when third-party use of data has become problematic. The startup's technology was praised for identifying and informing users of the leaking of over 38 million records linked to Microsoft Power Applications.
