A Vision for Innovation

RadarFirst dates back to 2010 when we started asking ourselves, “Is there a more consistent, rigorous and streamlined way to evaluate the risk of harm to individuals regarding the exposure of sensitive data?”

We started first with HIPAA and expanded to our extensive global breach law coverage provided today. This curiosity drives our innovation mindset and has led to nine patents covering our Radar® Breach Guidance Engine that’s included in the Radar® Privacy platform today, as well as numerous high-profile industry awards.

Our mission is to create the most innovative and valuable platform to manage privacy and security incidents involving regulated data. Using intelligent, automated, and purpose-built SaaS technology, we’re revolutionizing incident management.

Our customers include some of the largest healthcare, insurance, financial, and government organizations, including numerous Fortune 100 companies. For each of these current, and future, customers, we endeavor to become a long-term strategic partner – and our customer satisfaction ratings are proof that we are on the right track.

Integrity & Empathy

At our very core, we value and function with integrity and empathy; in the product we build, how we service our customers, and the culture within our walls.

Inclusion & Innovation

We aspire to be the most inclusive and innovative company in the Privacy industry, and engrain these values into our product.

Respect & Candor

To be the best strategic partner, we must always function with respect and unrelenting candor.
