Our take

Transmit Security is a customer identity and access management (CIAM) platform that is on a mission to rid the world of passwords. Organizations lose millions every year due to unsafe password-based authentication - with weak passwords accounting for 80% of all data breaches.

The company offers a developer-friendly platform that provides passwordless authentication, fraud detection, and identity verification. Whilst the company serves many of the world’s largest banks, insurers and retailers, being collectively responsible for more that $2T in annual commerce, it is not without competitors. Both Microsoft and Apple have developed password-free authentication.

Nonetheless, Transmit Security has undoubtedly carved out significant space in the market. Since its impressive series A funding - the largest cybersecurity funding round of its kind in history - the company has experienced record growth and has added new customers and been recognised as a Leader in Customer identity and Access Management by The Forrester Wave™, all pointing towards a promising future of continued success.
