Who we are: 

Panaseer is a unique business that is changing the face of enterprise security. 

As a scale-up at the intersection of data science and big data technology, our Continuous Controls Monitoring platform (CCM) pioneered a new market category in the rapidly growing security sector. CCM enables global organizations to better protect themselves from cyber-attacks by ensuring their cybersecurity defenses are fully deployed and working effectively at all times.
