Backed By Thought Leaders

We Started Because Existing Security Does NOT Meet Modern Teams’ Needs

We saw that existing security solutions just couldn't keep up with modern teams like yours. So, we decided to shake things up! Start Left™'s got this patent-protected SaaS Security Management Platform that makes Software Supply Chain Security & Cloud Product Security a piece of cake for the modern era of software development.

Our Story

Team of Product Security Experts

At Start Left™ Security, we've got a squad of cloud-native product development experts who know security like the back of their hand. We're talking an FBI Unit Chief for Cyberterrorism, top-notch secure product consultants, and brains that have seen it all.

Our founders have been in the trenches, with experiences like being a CISO for Web.com and CSX Rail, and rocking the role of a software security engineer for big FinTech players. They've seen firsthand how security automation can revolutionize software delivery.

So, what do they do? They've brought Start Left™'s SaaS Security Management Platform into the game. Our platform is purpose-built to tackle your SaaS security challenges with the speed of innovation. And guess what? We're assembling an all-star team to join this mission to help our clients build and maintain top-notch, safe products.

  • Jeremy Vaughan, CEO

    As a seasoned software entrepreneur, Jeremy wanted to make Version 3.0 of what he had learned from previous ventures. This would be a better, next-generation operating model made possible by Start Left™ Security, our patented Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform. The goal is to make the world safer and more secure by automating security and compliance in a way that saves money and covers the whole software development lifecycle (SDLC). His goal was to build ecosystems of digital ethics, trust, and transparency by making complicated things easy to understand. This would help our clients move faster and with less risk, and it would cost a fraction of what other solutions would.

  • Alex Borhani, CISO

    Alex is an experienced technology executive in the security industry. He has worked as Unit Chief for the FBI, where he specialized in cyber investigations and counterterrorism. As a top expert, he became the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for many large companies, such as Web.com and CSX Rail, where he put Zero Trust and DevSecOps security frameworks into place. In 2019, he became a co-founder. He leads our platform's vision and helps our clients with cloud product security advice, giving your team access to security recommendations as well as our platform that scales your security program.

  • Joe Procopio, CTO

    Joe has worked as a Senior Engineer and Architect for financial services companies like Black Knight and Fidelity after selling his successful fintech software. He has been in charge of making strong solutions, integrated technologies, and platforms for data analytics. Joe has worked on everything from SaaS startups to enterprise systems, delivering high-quality, well-thought-out solutions that are easy to use. Joe is now in charge of engineering for our Start Left™ Security ASPM platform and helps clients implement security achitectures and secure development approaches. He helps them use modern security methods and solve the problems that come with keeping products secure, compliant, and high-performing.
