Our take
A platform focused on decentralising access management for enterprise customers, Opal is a company that offer businesses self-serve catalogues and identity management software to streamline workflows and access company data. In big businesses with large numbers of employees, cloud access can lead to a higher threat of security breaches, a problem that has plagued large companies like Amazon for years.
Opal combines its access management software with approval workflow solutions and customised app catalogues to help enterprises expand and keep secure.
Though it’s a competitive marketplace for security software development companies, Opal uses its founders' backgrounds in software engineering to help simplify the management of who accesses a company's data. Opal has large-scale clients such as Databricks, Switchboard, Coinlist, and Merge under its belt as well as robust investors backing them.
