About Cmd_

Customers trust us because we know Linux. Scratch that – we love Linux. We have deep experience in cloud and endpoint security, and we are dedicated to delivering Linux-first, cloud-native solutions for security problems that every Linux administrator faces.

Cmd was born out of the painful frustrations that we had faced personally as Security Officers protecting Linux. We knew there had to be a better way. And so we went out and created it: user-friendly, accessible solutions that made sense for modern DevOps teams operating in the cloud.
