What we do

At Waratek, we believe security should be scalable, and we're helping organizations achieve that with control through policy. Our Security-as-Code suite protects applications at scale for enterprises around the world.

As the leader in the next significant shift toward proactive security platforms, organizations of all sizes rely on our solutions to prescriptively secure their business-critical applications to deliver financial services, supply chain management, and communications and entertainment platforms.

We're building a unique application and API security company with a different approach. Rather than focusing on lagging indicators like network traffic and regex, we fix vulnerabilities in the code while your applications run. Security professionals and developers love our solutions for the low friction and ease of scalability.

Who we are

We are a growing team who are deeply passionate about our work and the difference we make for our customers and community.

With an original focus on effecting changes in compilers to improve the efficiency of applications, we soon realized that we could do the same thing from a security perspective. In fact, the ability to apply declarative policies at runtime resulted in better protection and Security-as-Code was born.

This is the foundation of our viewpoint that shifts from more traditional approaches to securing applications.

Our values

We believe that passion is the driver that spreads to others within our company, our customers and partners. Passion is the glue that binds our core values together.

Inventiveness

We believe that innovation feeds a natural curiosity and passion for learning new disciplines, inspiring growth within the individuals of the Waratek team.

Integrity

We believe in holding ourselves accountable to each other and our customers. We will always offer sincere and pragmatic guidance to ensure our customers are successful.

Customer commitment

We are committed to providing scalable security solutions that enable enterprise security teams to increase their coverage, drastically lower their time-to-remediation, and demonstrate ROI.

Teamwork

We believe good workplace relationships are essential for the success of individuals, teams, and organizations. Fun at work empowers employee happiness leading to less stress, better engagement, and more creativity.

Diversity

Diversity helps mitigate groupthink and positively impacts our company's workplace, workforce, profitability, and recruitment endeavors. This focus enables us to build a world-class company with a solid foundation.

No jerks

We believe that when we provide feedback systems to ensure teams and staff collaborate in a supportive environment, we create a safe space for invention, innovation, and inspiration.
