Sidekick Labs
Sidekick Labs provides a forward-deployed cybersecurity platform that embeds intelligent security assistance directly into user workflows, delivering real-time protection at the moment decisions introduce risk. The platform surfaces the right identity, the right setting, and whether an app is approved across applications—including those with no central management—while detecting missing SSO/MFA controls and unvetted connected apps.

Problem
Traditional cybersecurity controls operate at the network or endpoint level, leaving users unprotected at the exact moments when their decisions—such as clicking a link, approving an action, or sharing data—can introduce risk. With the rise of AI-driven threats that exploit human behavior, organizations lack a foundational security layer that provides guidance and protection directly at the user level, in real time.
Solution
Sidekick Labs offers a forward-deployed cybersecurity platform that embeds intelligent security assistance directly alongside every user. The platform collects telemetry and other data relating to security events and workflows, then uses that context to deliver real-time protection and guidance at critical moments when decisions can create risk. Sidekick brings security and business context directly into workflows—including applications with no central management—so when someone signs up, signs in, or changes a setting, the platform surfaces the right identity, the right setting, and whether the app is approved. The solution is designed to operate continuously, integrating with existing enterprise workflows and alerting users instantly when a security-sensitive action is detected, without cumbersome disruption.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprises seeking to strengthen their security posture against AI-driven threats by embedding proactive, user-level protection into their existing workflows.
Features
- Real-time security assistance embedded directly in user workflows, providing just-in-time guidance and protection
- Collection and processing of security event telemetry and workflow data to contextualize risk for each user action
- Forward-deployed architecture that places security expertise at the individual user level rather than only at network boundaries
- Visibility into which personal identities access company data, which accounts train on AI models, and which connected apps lack approval
- Detection of missing SSO/MFA controls and unvetted connected applications that could expose sensitive data
- Designed to address AI-driven threats by targeting the human-behavior component of security risk
