Ghost Security describes itself as an “app security” company that delivers visibility and risk protection for apps and their dependencies, including services and APIs, in both cloud and on‑premises environments. The company says it takes a “data science” approach to security to solve challenges other vendors cannot, but has kept technical details high‑level and its product has not yet launched. Ghost plans to use new capital to expand the team, build the product, and run pilots with potential customers. Leadership includes CEO Greg Martin, CTO Josh Larsen (ex‑Symantec, Check Point, and cofounder of Blackfin Security Group) and chief product officer Eric Cornelius (former deputy director of DHS’s control systems security program and ex‑BlackBerry product architect). Ghost faces competition from API and app security vendors including Salt Security, Noname, Traceable AI, 42Crunch, Cequence, Astrix Security, and Enso Security. The company emerged from stealth with funding and a stated roadmap to commercialize its offering.
