Security product design
Design and build security products that technical teams trust: threat dashboards, workflow automation, and access control interfaces for cybersecurity startups.
Why security product design is different
Security products serve users making high-stakes decisions under time pressure—incident response, vulnerability triage, access approvals. The tolerance for confusion is zero. Dense threat data needs clear hierarchy. Complex workflows need visual clarity. And the users are often security analysts and ops teams, not developers—a different design paradigm than most developer tools.
We’ve designed security products that reached unicorn status. Twice.
What we’ve designed and built
Tines is a security automation platform. We designed and built the core product, including the visual workflow builder that lets security teams automate complex processes without code. We covered UI design, React/GraphQL frontend, and Ruby on Rails backend, delivering 100x performance improvements in target areas. Tines has raised $90M+ and reached unicorn status.
Tines workflow builder: drag-and-drop automation for security teams
Ghost Security helps enterprises find application vulnerabilities. We designed their MVP and built the Vue.js/TypeScript frontend—the threat visualization dashboard, vulnerability detail views, and the information architecture for complex security data. They raised $15M. Their CTO called us “truly in an elite class of modern design experts.”
Teleport is a privileged access management platform used by 100+ enterprise customers. We built Go-based access control plugins for Slack, Jira, PagerDuty, GitLab, and Mattermost—creating an ecosystem that made Teleport indispensable to ops teams. We transformed their documentation into a customer acquisition channel with Next.js. Teleport has raised $170M and reached unicorn status.
Certora builds smart contract verification tools. We designed and built a VS Code extension for formal verification in two months, from design sprint to marketplace. The interface visualizes complex proof results in a way that blockchain security engineers can act on immediately.
Security infrastructure
Security products typically run on Go, TypeScript, and Python. We work across all three. For Wallarm, an API security platform protecting 20,000+ apps and ranked in the Top 150 Cybersecurity Companies, we optimized their Go-based event processing pipeline for high-throughput security data. We understand the architecture patterns behind threat detection, access control, and security data pipelines.
AI and agentic security
The next wave of security products protects AI systems—agent-to-agent communication, MCP tool integrations, LLM-powered APIs. We bring both security product design experience (Tines, Teleport, Wallarm) and AI infrastructure expertise (bolt.new, AgentPrism, AI Harnesses) to teams building in this space.
