It took a lot of sales time to try to talk through all this. The company was co-founded by Andrew Krioukov (CEO), the former founder and CEO of workplace management service Comfy (which Siemens acquired in 2018) Michael Andersen (CTO), the group’s cryptography specialist who, like Krioukov, has a PhD in Computer Science from Berkeley and Beau Trincia (VP of Design), who was also on the founding team at Comfy and spent seven years working on user experience design and product at IDEO.ĭuring the experience of building Comfy, Krioukov and Trincia themselves faced the problem of having to protect the user data of large enterprise customers like Microsoft, BMW, Salesforce and SAP.

The company also today announced that it has raised a $12 million Series A round led by NEA, with participation from General Catalyst and UNION Labs.
It provides SaaS companies with the cryptographic infrastructure that can provably guarantee that a service meets their residency, governance and tenancy requirements, using secure enclaves that keeps data encrypted in transit, at rest and during execution. Antimatter, which is coming out of stealth today and launching its service into private beta, offers a different kind of solution to these problems.
Add users who need their data sandboxed from others or kept in a specific geographic region and the workload for development and security teams only increases. With SaaS becoming the standard for most business software, the security demands on SaaS companies are constantly increasing.
