2025 Cyber Growth Lab
⚡️ Calling the Right Cyber Founders for a Tight Pilot⚡️
The 2025 Cyber Growth Lab will build on a simple rule:
Provide once, Rely on many!
Imagine a rego sticker for vendor assurance: Small Surface - Big Proof!
We are looking for 5x builder led teams who can ship in regulated environments and stand up machine evidence fast. Do you meet the following criteria:
⚡️Founder/CTO already in market or late alpha
⚡️You can pull machine evidence from tools like Okta, AzureAD, CrowdStrike, Qualys, Intune, SentinelOne, ServiceNow, Vanta/Drata
⚡️AU data residency is fine, no PII in the payload, audit trail by default
⚡️You can map to CPS 230/234 without turning it into a paperwork circus
⚡️Ideally, you’ve done at least one enterprise pilot and didn’t melt in procurement
⚡️ Show a working/secure API pull for MFA, EDR health and patch latency in under 14 days, or better
⚡️ Deliver an audit log we can hand to a regulator without a story attached
⚡️ Run AU only and keep PII out of the pack
In Lab, you will build
⚡️ A lean Evidence Pack for critical suppliers
⚡️API first ingestion (or similar/better/more secure) plus a low friction upload path for the rest
⚡️ RAG owned by the buyer, clean change triggers, clear chain of custody
Assumptions you will not find in the Lab:
🚫 “Another portal will do.” It won’t... reduce logins or you lose
🚫 “Self attest is enough.” It isn’t... machine beats memo
🚫 “Quarterly is fine.” Not when patch latency and sub processor changes move weekly!
If you meet these criteria, please apply before 30 September!
