Company mission
To redefine AI security. Its product empowers businesses to securely deploy their mission-critical AI within an everchanging cyber landscape.
Our take
Businesses are increasingly focused on offering AI-driven services. However, AI models have become a critical attack surface and this has become a considerable security threat for organisations.
Mindgard is enabling enterprise businesses to move into the new AI world, with a platform that provides threat analysis, detection of bad actors and automates a response. This is crucial for companies as it makes the complexity of model assessment easy and actionable through integrations into common MLOps and Sec Ops 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 has recently successfully raised funding. This will be used to expand operations in the UK, ensuring Mindgard stays at the forefront of the ever-evolving AI security space.
