Eclypsium
In the cybersecurity landscape, Eclypsium stands apart through its focus on a critical yet underinvested vulnerability: hardware, firmware, and supply chain security. While most security vendors concentrate on software-level threats, the Eclypsium team has built a platform that protects the underlying components in laptops, servers, and network infrastructure. These foundational elements represent a dangerous blind spot as attacks grow increasingly sophisticated and are particularly applicable to the complex supply chains of large enterprises.
Eclypsium’s founding team developed their specialized expertise at Intel, building hardware security from the ground up. The resulting deep technical insights enabled the team to identify critical gaps early in the industry’s lifecycle and address vulnerabilities at levels where most security professionals lack visibility.
Ideally, enterprises need to trust that devices are authentic, compliantly manufactured, and have not been tampered with, whether throughout the supply chain or in a recent patch. Unfortunately, CISOs can no longer rely solely on manufacturers or traditional security products to handle this function.
For instance, Eclypsium researchers uncovered critical firmware vulnerabilities in Palo Alto Networks security devices that could bypass Secure Boot protections. Thanks to their timely discovery, these flaws could be patched before attackers exploited them, preventing what could have been devastating breaches of the very infrastructure designed to keep networks safe.

Eclypsium's practical approach is particularly noteworthy. Their platform integrates naturally with existing security infrastructure and scales efficiently across enterprise environments. This matters because even breakthrough security technologies fail if they can't fit into existing workflows and operational processes. The company has already deployed its security solutions across Fortune 500 environments and federal agencies, including the Department of Defense. Many of the leading providers of laptops, PCs, servers, and data center equipment are Eclypsium customers.
The Pacific Northwest has consistently produced strong infrastructure technology, and Eclypsium continues this tradition by securing supply chains at their foundational level. They're not chasing buzzwords or building incremental improvements - they're addressing fundamental vulnerabilities that become more critical each day. Eclypsium represents the kind of innovation that matters - exceptional technical talent solving complex problems that create meaningful enterprise value for organizations worldwide. We’re thrilled to back their journey.
