Zip Security

Cloud-based endpoint protection and compliance platform

Overview

ZipSec provides a subscription-based cybersecurity platform tailored for small to medium-sized businesses. It centralizes endpoint protection, inventory management, and compliance tracking to simplify security and regulatory evidence generation (SOC 2, ISO 27001) for organizations with limited IT resources. The product codifies expert security knowledge into an easy-to-use interface, giving SMBs a single source of truth for managing security and compliance without needing a full in-house security team. Unlike many security vendors that target larger enterprises, ZipSec focuses on affordability and scalability through tiered plans that let smaller companies start with essential protections and grow as needed. The company aims to make enterprise-level security practical and affordable for SMBs, ensuring ongoing protection and easier compliance across their digital assets.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Series A closed July 14, 2025, led by Ballistic Ventures, funding expansion.
  • Phoebe and Observa case studies show measurable security outcomes and zero-engineering deployments.
  • Healthcare and defense positioning benefits from June 2026 DLP and Ambience Healthcare partnership.

What critics are saying

  • CrowdStrike, Google, and Microsoft bundle overlapping controls, pressuring Zip's pricing by 2027.
  • SMB buyers churn when audits finish; BD Emerson clients previously drifted out of compliance.
  • If Google Workspace or Microsoft adds native remediation, Zip's DLP wedge collapses quickly.

What makes Zip Security unique

  • Zip unifies MDM, EDR, identity, and compliance for SMBs without security staff.
  • June 2026 Google Workspace DLP adds one-click remediation and 180-day sharing-history scans.
  • Case studies show fast deployment: Phoebe reached 100% device coverage in three days.

Zip Security launches AI-powered DLP to detect exposed Google Drive files

Zip Security has launched a data loss prevention solution for Google Workspace, enabling security teams to identify and remediate publicly exposed files in Google Drive. The platform uses AI-powered metadata analysis to scan up to 180 days of sharing history and surface high-risk files without manual effort. The solution provides real-time risk analysis with plain-language assessments, identifies the riskiest users across organisations, and offers one-click remediation to revoke public access. The platform analyses only file metadata, permissions and sharing history, never accessing file contents. Zip Security's platform already serves high-growth companies across healthcare, technology and defence sectors. The new DLP capability extends its unified platform, which covers device management, endpoint security, identity management and compliance. The solution is now available for organisations using Google Workspace.
