About Us

Founded in June 2024, CyberWhiz was built upon more than a decade of hands-on embedded and IoT Cyber Security experience gained by its founders throughout their previous careers.

Our team brings a unique combination of expertise spanning embedded system design, embedded security engineering, RF and communication technologies, mobile application security, cloud security, and IoT cloud services design, covering the entire IoT ecosystem across Edge·Mobile·Cloud.

Unlike traditional IT security companies that approach IoT cybersecurity from a top-down perspective, as CyberWhiz we have a bottom-up approach. Because we come directly from the industries that design and produce millions of IoT devices, we deeply understand what device manufacturers truly need to build secure, scalable, and regulation-compliant IoT ecosystems.

We believe IoT Cyber Security is not only about technology, it is about orchestration. Achieving continuous compliance with evolving regulations such as RED DA, CRA, and R155R156 requires security to be embedded across the entire lifecycle of the product.

Combining our embedded, mobile, and cloud security expertise with specialized Red Team, Blue Team, and Purple Team services, CyberWhiz delivers end-to-end IoT Cyber Security solutions as a true one-stop shop for connected device manufacturers.
