About Us:

Obsidian Security was founded in 2017 to solve the unaddressed blindspot of SaaS Security.

If those tools become unavailable or that data is jeopardized, there is a detrimental impact on the organization. 

Obsidian proudly offers the industry's most comprehensive and powerful SaaS defense solution. We are committed to solving the challenge of SaaS Security for our customers as efficiently and effectively as possible.

We’re a passionate team optimizing for impact by solving some of the biggest challenges in cybersecurity today.

Working at Obsidian means contributing to an industry-leading cybersecurity product in an environment where customer satisfaction, privacy, and data ethics are paramount.
