Defguard is a Polish cybersecurity startup that provides a self-hosted, open-source Identity & Access Management and Virtual Private Network platform built on the WireGuard protocol. The company's primary innovation is the implementation of multi-factor authentication directly at the WireGuard protocol layer. By integrating VPN automation, single sign-on, and hardware security token provisioning, Defguard helps organizations achieve GDPR and NIS2 compliance without relying on foreign cloud dependencies. Following its origin as an in-house project starting in 2020, the platform secured its first paying clients in 2024 and raised a 1.2 million euro pre-seed funding round in May 2025.
