Tide Foundation is a deep-tech cybersecurity company on a mission to make breaches irrelevant. Led by experienced devs, cryptographers and security vets, the team brings decades of experience building mission-critical systems for major global technology companies, infrastructure providers and fast-growing startups.
Tide introduces a new approach to security, with developer-ready tools so teams can ship fast without carrying the constant burden of security on their shoulders.
"The only thing more secure than Tide, is if we disconnected from the internet"
Developers and cybersecurity teams are stuck in an endless game of whack-a-mole, trying to monitor and patch their way to safety. It's proven impossible, and no compliance regimes, best efforts or vendor promises can fix a system that's flawed by design.
Tide's breakthrough research in Ineffable Cryptography enables a different path: Provable security - where identities, data and access are locked with keys no-one will ever hold. No vendor, no administrator, not even Tide. Access is mediated by Tide's Cybersecurity Fabric - a decentralized network service that enforces cryptographic proofs in place of blind trust - and while worst-case breaches are assumed, no single compromise can escalate into a systemic collapse.
Tide's technology has been, peer-reviewed and lab-tested by tier one universities and global experts. Their work has been recognized by industry awards and cited by global policy bodies, including the OECD and government agencies in the UK and Australia. Its technology is trusted by organizations from high-growth startups through to Fortune 500 companies, helping reshape the digital world into one where no one holds the key – and everyone can interact with confidence, in spite of inevitable breaches.

Tide Co-founders: Dominique Valladolid, Michael Loewy, Yuval Hertzog.
