Company mission

To secure the world's Artificial Intelligence.

Our take

Mindgard is enabling enterprise businesses to move into the new AI world, with a platform that provides threat analysis, detection of bad actors and automated red teaming and penetration testing. This is crucial for companies as it makes the complexity of model assessment easy and actionable through integrations into common MLOps and SecOps tools.

Mindgard is a deep tech spin-out from Lancaster University, and the team comprises of world-leading scientists and engineers in cyber security & AI systems. It's already being used by key intelligence organisations globally, and the company successfully raised funding in 2024. This is being used to expand operations in the UK and US, ensuring Mindgard stays at the forefront of the ever-evolving AI security space.
