Our story
We founded Redcoat AI at a pivotal moment for cybersecurity.
With generative AI, bad actors now have the ability to exploit individuals and systems on an unparalled scale. At the forefront is a sharp rise in social engineering attacks, which have also become more sophisticated due to their use of contextual information, deepfake technology, and human-like interactions. In fact, the future is already here -- in 2024 alone, the volume of phishing messages on Redcoat AI is projected to grow by 1,300%.
We are a group of seasoned builders and experts in the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. We've come together to build a comprehensive security platform that continuously evolves with the threats and opportunities presented by AI.
