Osto is a VC-backed cybersecurity product startup founded by 2X cybersecurity entrepreneurs, Karmesh Gupta and Praveen Gupta. As cybersecurity becomes a priority even for early-stage startups, traditional approaches remain costly, complex, and slow - designed for enterprises, not fast-moving teams. Founders are forced to choose between multiple legacy tools, expensive compliance services, and long implementation cycles that slow growth. Osto changes that. Osto is an AI-powered, one-stop cybersecurity platform for startups. It delivers real-time protection across cloud, endpoints, and networks, while also enabling compliance readiness (SOC 2, ISO, HIPAA etc.), VAPT, and automated security questionnaire responses - all through a single, easy-to-use SaaS platform. Osto deploys in minutes, not months, and works without requiring dedicated security engineers. As startups grow, Osto scales seamlessly with them, across customers, geographies, and infrastructure, ensuring security and compliance never become a bottleneck to growth. Our mission is simple: to democratise cybersecurity for startups & SMBs globally, and turn security from a blocker into a growth enabler.
