Simplicity at the Core of Cloud Security

2018Founded by Cloud Engineers

Engineering Clarity for a Complex Cloud World

We are a team of cloud engineers, security researchers, and product builders who were frustrated by how hard multi-cloud security had become — and set out to fix it.

Founded in San Francisco in 2018, 9linesoftware was built by engineers who lived the pain of deploying dozens of agents across cloud environments, spending weeks just to get visibility. We asked: what if you could get complete cloud-wide security coverage with the simplicity of nine lines of code?

Today, we protect over 500 million cloud resources across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes — agentlessly — for some of the world's largest enterprises.

100% Agentless — no runtime footprint in your workloads
SOC 2 Type II Certified — security you can trust
AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes support — out of the box
