Centralizing application security testing for modern engineering teams.

WHAT THEY’RE BUILDING

Kondukto is an application security orchestration platform (ASOC) that pulls findings from every security scanner into one centralized view, correlates and prioritizes real risk, and plugs directly into CI/CD pipelines so security and engineering teams can act on signal instead of noise.

THE FOUNDING TEAM

Kondukto was founded in 2019 by Cenk Kalpakoğlu and Can Taylan Bilgin, who spun the company out of a managed cybersecurity services business with over a decade of hands-on experience securing enterprise environments.

WHY WE BACKED THEM

Application security was becoming a frontline priority for CISOs as attack surfaces grew with cloud and CI/CD adoption, and frequent code changes made manual triage impossible. Kondukto's founders paired deep operator know-how in managed security with a product built around developer and security team workflows, positioning them to lead a nascent category.
