### Meet the visionaries behind RAD Security, a finalist for Black Hat Startup Spotlight Competition

This Black Hat USA, meet Brooke Motta and Jimmy Mesta, the founders of RAD Security, which eliminates cloud native attacks using transparent, behavioral baselines that integrate real-time identity and infrastructure context.

 

## RAD Security gives back. Join us in supporting the National Cyber Scholarship Foundation.

For the third year in a row, we are dedicating our presence at Black Hat to charity. By meeting with our team, you'll be helping us support the [NCS Foundation](https://www.nationalcyberscholarship.org/), a youth-serving nonprofit working to prepare young people for careers in cybersecurity. Contributing to the work of the Foundation will enable the United States to continue supporting and developing the necessary talent protect our country’s infrastructure in these ever-changing times.

## Signatures are history in cloud native detection and response. 

In sharp contrast to one-size-fits-all, legacy CWPP and container detection and response solutions, RAD takes a custom, behavioral approach to cloud native detection and response that can counter evolving threats while sharpening inputs into shift-left and posture management.

## Want to learn more about our radical approach to cloud native detection and response?

Request a meeting with our founding team at our hospitality suite at Mandalay Bay, or somewhere else convenient for you.
