Security-as-a-Service platform for SME compliance and risk management
Perseus bundles cyber-security assessment, risk scoring, and incident response into a single platform aimed at SMEs navigating GDPR and breach prevention. The tech stack (Elasticsearch, Microsoft Defender, JumpCloud) reflects a managed-security operation, while active hiring across security, product, and ops roles—with 5 positions posted in the last 30 days—suggests they're scaling consulting delivery and platform capability in parallel. Current friction points reveal the core challenge: standardizing incident response and European operations as they grow beyond a single-market footprint.
Perseus Technologies, founded in 2017 and based in Berlin, operates a Security-as-a-Service platform for small and medium-sized enterprises. The offering combines automated risk assessment via AI-based scoring, continuous compliance monitoring, human and AI-driven threat prevention, incident management, and insurance integration. The company serves as both a software platform and a managed-security consulting business, with infrastructure run on Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana for logging and Microsoft Defender for threat detection. Current operational focus centers on scaling European operations, standardizing incident response workflows, and expanding the consulting practice while maintaining platform stability.
