Respecting Data, Protecting People, Building Trust

Mission: Protect people by securing sensitive data with clarity, context, and automated governance.

Our mission is to restore the human dimension to data security by treating sensitive data as identity. Lightbeam unifies data security, privacy, and governance in one AI-powered platform that connects every file, record, and attribute to the people it represents. We eliminate blind spots, reduce breach risk, and automate compliance so organizations protect people, not just data, with clarity and confidence.

Vision: A future where businesses protect people, not just files, and build trust through stewardship.

We envision a world where data should be respected, not just managed. Behind every byte is a person with rights, dignity, and expectations. Lightbeam’s vision is to secure digital environments where innovation thrives, privacy is honored, and governance is effortless. By linking data to human identity, we redefine security as an ethical responsibility, one that builds lasting trust between organizations and the people they serve.

How Lightbeam Began

From Nutanix to Lightbeam: A Journey of Convergence

Lightbeam’s founders set out to solve a problem they faced firsthand at Nutanix: the struggle to definitively discover, accurately classify, and automate the process of securing sensitive data. Inspired by Nutanix’s converged model, they built Lightbeam to converge DSPM, Privacy, and Governance in one AI-powered platform, eliminating blind spots, reducing risk, and automating compliance.
