Description

Light Point Security uses the power of virtualization and cloud technologies to protect users from web-based malware.

History

Light Point Security is a small security startup based in Baltimore, Maryland. It was founded in February 2010 by Beau Adkins and Zuly Gonzalez after being frustrated by the lack of viable options in web security software. After years of research and development in the application security field, we have developed the world’s safest way to browse the web.
