About

The startup says its goal is to make data breaches “irrelevant” by efficiently encrypting data wherever it may be, so that even if there is a security breach, the data will be unavailable and unusable by hackers. “Most encryption is misapplied, and quite frankly, doesn’t do anything to protect your data,” the startup claims. The company claims it stores records belonging to the top 5 global financial services companies and five of the top 25 global companies. Baffle was founded in 2015 to help thwart the increasing threats to enterprise assets in public and private clouds.
