Lookout, Inc. is an endpoint to cloud security company purpose-built for the intersection of enterprise and personal data. We safeguard data across devices, apps, networks and clouds through our unified, cloud-native security platform — a solution that's as fluid and flexible as the modern digital world. By giving organizations and individuals greater control over their data, we enable them to unleash its value and thrive. Lookout is trusted by enterprises of all sizes, government agencies and millions of consumers to protect sensitive data, enabling them to live, work and connect — freely and safely. 

The traditional mechanism of protecting a business via a branch office based security solution is no longer applicable due to a major shift towards remote work. Our SSE solution breaks the physical perimeter based security and allows security policies to be applied wherever the end user happens to be. Our team is building a public cloud based SSE solution to accomplish this. We are innovating at a fast pace to resolve performance challenges across the data plane, control plane and management plane. We are embracing leading edge technologies at a rapid pace to elevate our end customer experience.
