We are security practitioners, engineers, and productbuilders who identified the same gap from every angle: theindustry was tracking products when it needed to be trackingcapabilities.
The founding insight was straightforward: the data needed to manage a security portfolio well already exists inside mostorganisations. Procurement systems hold contract and renewal data. Security operations teams hold performance and incidentdata. Vendor websites publish capability data. The problem is that no one had stitched it together.
Louis Holt spent over a decade working across government, counter-terrorism, and Fortune-level enterprise securitytransformations. The same pattern appeared everywhere — organisations with significant security investments that couldn't answerbasic questions about what they had, what it did, or whether it was working.
ESPROFILER was built to answer those questions at scale — automatically, continuously, and in a format that a CISO can take into aboard conversation with confidence.
Today, ESPROFILER is deployed in enterprise environments, backed by Google for Startups and validated through the UK NationalCyber Security Centre programme. The platform continues to grow with the mission it was founded on: giving security leaders theintelligence they need to lead.
