Passwordless identity verification and authentication for government and enterprise
1Kosmos operates a passwordless MFA platform built on Java, Node.js, Go, and Kubernetes across AWS, Azure, and GCP. The company is scaling customer success and federal go-to-market motion simultaneously — support, marketing, and sales each grew by 2+ open roles in the last month — while hiring a CISO and security engineering roles, indicating tightening compliance demands around their core identity and fraud-prevention claims. Current pain points center on federal procurement complexity and adoption gaps post-sale.
