Our story
Why we built this

Most founders don’t think about security until something goes wrong. It might be a breach, a lost customer, or a due diligence check that stalls a funding round. We understand why. When every rupee counts, security feels like something you can deal with later.

We’ve been there. Rex Cyber Solutions is bootstrapped too, and we grew one customer at a time without outside investors. That’s why we believe security should start on day one, and money should never be the reason a young company goes without it.

Money should never be the reason a young company goes without security.

The model
How we keep it free
Investors don’t pay for this program. Our customers do. Every paid engagement from SMBs, MSMEs and enterprises helps fund security for another startup. Many of the startups we secure grow into paying customers themselves, and that is how the program keeps going.
Our customers pay
SMBs, MSMEs and enterprises book paid engagements.
A startup gets secured
That revenue funds free security work for an early-stage team.
The startup grows
Many become paying customers themselves, and the cycle keeps going.
…and round it goes. Founders helping founders.
