Founded in 2017, Obsidian Security was created to close a critical gap: securing the SaaS applications where modern business happens—platforms like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and hundreds more.
Backed by top investors including Greylock, Norwest Venture Partners, and IVP, we’ve built a complete SaaS security platform to reduce risk, detect and respond to threats, and prevent breaches at the source. Our team includes leaders who helped define the categories of endpoint and identity security at CrowdStrike, Okta, Cylance, and Carbon Black.
Now, we’re transforming how SaaS is secured—in the era of agentic AI.
Today, Obsidian is trusted by global enterprises like Snowflake, T-Mobile, and Pure Storage. We protect more than 200 organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand—including many of the world’s largest Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.
With strong global momentum, a growing partner ecosystem including SentinelOne, Databricks, and Google Cloud, and a major fundraise on the horizon, we’re scaling quickly toward long-term growth and IPO readiness. Join us as we define the future of SaaS security!

View company profile

Obsidian Security is on the forefront of providing complete SaaS security solutions for businesses of all sizes. Trusted by the largest network of Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies, Obsidian empowers organizations to protect their people, applications, and data with an end-to-end security platform. The adoption of Software as a Service (SaaS) applications has become ubiquitous, leading organizations to rely heavily on these tools for daily operations. However, with this reliance comes a heightened risk of potential breaches and attacks, with reports indicating that 81% of organizations have sensitive data exposed and a staggering 300% increase in monthly SaaS breaches. Our platform specifically addresses these vulnerabilities by offering unified security capabilities that encompass posture management and threat protection, ensuring comprehensive coverage against identity-based attacks.

At Obsidian, we recognize that SaaS identities are the new frontline in cybersecurity. Our solutions are tailored to understand both human and non-human identities, effectively minimizing the threat surface and preventing breaches at their source. With features such as SSPM Plus, we empower application owners to become security experts, reducing risks associated with app misconfigurations and excessive privileges. Moreover, our continuous monitoring and advanced detection capabilities provide organizations with the tools needed to not only identify but also respond to potential threats promptly. Top organizations, including Snowflake and Databricks, have partnered with us to enhance their security posture leveraging our innovative approach. The Obsidian Advantage lies in our promise of always-on monitoring, compliance assurance, and a remarkable reduction in accounts with excessive privileges. Security isn’t just our business; it is our commitment to ensuring that every SaaS application is defended intelligently and effectively.
