RED BALLOON SECURITY was founded by Dr. Ang Cui out of Columbia Universityโs Intrusion Detection Systems Lab in 2011 with its pioneering technology, Symbiote Defense. Today, its R&D has expanded to a team of world-class researchers and developers who continue to publish seminal research papers on embedded security and intrusion detection.
ย
Since its inception, the team at Red Balloon has partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security, performing on funded research activities and deploying its defensive technologies on a range of critical embedded systems. The company has also ethically disclosed vulnerabilities in hundreds of millions of embedded devices and continues to advance the state of embedded device security as part of its mission.
Red Balloon Security received a Tibbetts Award for its accomplishments in creating cutting-edge technologies from funding made available by U.S. Government small business innovation research programs.
Red Balloon Security performs in the final DARPA RADICS exercise, demonstrating its embedded defense technologies in a range of power distribution devices manufactured by industry leading companies.
Red Balloon Security partners with Siemens Smart Infrastructure to deliver cybersecurity to building automation systems.
