The startup develops network management software that secures enterprise data by preventing sensitive data exfiltration from phishing attacks. Utilizing Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP) rules, the software restricts data packet travel, ensuring protection of sensitive information when other security measures fail.

Problem
Organizations face increasing threats of data exfiltration from phishing attacks, ransomware, and insider threats, even with existing layered security measures. Traditional security tools often fail to prevent sensitive data from leaving the datacenter or organizational perimeter, leading to breaches and compliance violations.
Solution
HOPZERO provides a patented DataTravel security solution that limits the distance data packets can travel across a network, preventing data exfiltration at the TCP/IP layer. By controlling the hop count or Time to Live (TTL) for critical servers, HOPZERO ensures data packets are discarded if they attempt to travel beyond a defined Sphere of Trust. The platform includes a Sphere of Trust Agent, a Network Collector, and a Visualizer Portal. These components work together to visualize data travel, generate actionable alarms, and enforce data containment policies, reducing the attack surface and improving security compliance.
Target Audience
HOPZERO targets enterprise organizations and managed security service providers (MSSPs) seeking to prevent data exfiltration, improve network visibility, and meet compliance requirements.
