Guardey is a cybersecurity company founded in 2022 by the team behind GOOSE VPN. The company provides security awareness training and VPN-based protection specifically designed for small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) and freelancers. The platform combines gamified security awareness training with real-time threat monitoring through a mobile application.

The core offering includes a VPN service that encrypts internet connections and a cyber alarm system that analyzes network traffic in real-time to detect suspicious behavior and threats. When threats are identified, users receive immediate notifications to take action. The company addresses the gap in the market where most cybersecurity solutions target large enterprises, leaving SMEs vulnerable to cyber attacks.

Guardey's security awareness training uses gamification to engage users through weekly challenges that teach employees how to recognize phishing emails and suspicious online activities. This approach aims to build a "human firewall" by reducing data breaches caused by human error, which account for 95% of all data leaks according to the company's research.

The company raised 2.2 million euros in 2022 from Dutch entrepreneurs and investors to develop and launch their software. Guardey serves over 45,000 users worldwide and supports more than 10 languages. The platform is designed to be accessible and affordable, providing enterprise-level cybersecurity capabilities to organizations that typically cannot afford expensive security infrastructure or dedicated IT security professionals.
