Pangea Cyber provides an API-first Security Platform as a Service (SPaaS) that offers dozens of developer-focused security building blocks such as authentication, authorization, secrets storage, logging, file-scanning for malicious activity, and more. The company positions itself as a hub for security services that developers can embed with a few lines of code, analogous to how Stripe and Twilio provide payments and communications. Pangea emphasizes a developer-first delivery model and API-only integrations to replace fragmented open-source and commercial offerings. Co-founder and CEO Oliver Friedrichs leads the company, which launched last year and now employs about 40 people. The firm has prioritized diversity in hiring and has a full-time in-house recruiter alongside outside resources. Financially, Pangea has raised capital rapidly, with a recent Series B contributing to a total of $52 million raised to date. Pangea Cyber emerged from stealth to offer a comprehensive portfolio of API-based security services through a single platform aimed at application builders. The company plans to release several dozen API-based microservices and already offers Secure Audit Log, Redact, and Embargo Check through an early access program. It also plans to aggregate third-party APIs via partnerships and offers services such as Secure Object Store and Secure File Share. Pangea is led by co-founders Oliver Friedrichs and Sourabh Satish, the team behind the Phantom Cyber SOAR platform acquired by Splunk in 2018. The company targets cloud and mobile app developers, SaaS platform providers, and SOCs to simplify embedding security and compliance into applications. Headquartered in Palo Alto, Pangea is venture-backed and says it will use new funding primarily for product development.
