Tolmo on the record

What they shipped

  • From its YC profile: Tolmo is an agent-driven security platform that secures every layer — code, CI, cloud applications at the speed of AI changes. Codebases are growing faster than ever, at a rate humans can’t keep up with. Tolmo deploys fleets of AI security agents on a live production knowledge graph that connects data from cloud services, containers, databases, and third-party providers (Observability, Security, etc.). Tolmo agents triage, verify impact, and remediate security issues autonomously, escalating to humans only when truly necessary. (source)
  • Its own site describes it as: "Autonomous security agents on a live knowledge graph of your code, cloud, and vendors. Tolmo finds vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and threats, then ships the fix." (source)

Who is behind it

  • Pierre Betouin, Founder/CEO: Pierre was leading security products at Datadog following the acquisition of Sqreen (W18) - a cybersecurity company providing a comprehensive security monitoring for cloud and web apps protecting over 800 customers in production. Pierre previously spent 9 years at Apple, where he led the team in charge of security assessments for the Internet Services department, hacking products and designing protection. (source)
  • Vladimir de Turckheim, Founder: Vladimir (Vlad) was a Staff Engineer working on security products at Datadog. He joined following the acquisition of Sqreen (W18) where he was employee #4 in charge of Node.js instrumentation. He was a Node.js core collaborator for five years and has setup the whole Node.js security program. He is also the founder of Heal.dev. (source)
