Tracing the lines of attack, without compromising user privacy.
At Traced, our vision is to live in a world where anyone can comfortably, easily and securely use the same mobile device for work and play.
Hear CEO Ben talk about Traced’s origins and the need for better mobile security in this showcase for NCSC.
The vision
Traced’s vision is to make the invisible visible.
It’s about making software that shines a light on threats that are invisible to traditional forms of detection. It’s about making sure our software protects people by being easy to understand, effective and affordably priced. And it’s about respecting users’ and employees privacy by being transparent about what you’re doing and why.
And it’s about making a different kind of security company. A company that understands and talks about the threats that businesses really face every day, rather than the ones that get the best headlines or induce the greatest fear.
…we’re sitting on the bleeding edge of cybersecurity, acting on problems that are affecting people’s lives. It’s nice to feel like we’re making a difference.
Matt Boddy, CTO
The software
The Traced app is a free mobile privacy and security app that protects users of both Android and iOS devices.
Traced Control is a groundbreaking MTD (Mobile Threat Defense) that works with the Traced app to give businesses visibility and analysis of mobile threats, and the tools they need for analysis, investigation and response.
Traced’s journey so far…
In November 2021 we were selected to join NCSC for Startups, working with the National Cyber Security Centre and Plexal Cyber to tackle the UK’s most pressing cybersecurity challenges.
