Our Story

Pioneering Cyber Hardening Technology

At RunSafe Security, our journey from inception to being a global leader in cyberhardening technology is fueled by a commitment to transforming cybersecurity. Founded by Joe Saunders and Doug Britton, our story begins with a shared frustration: despite heavy investments in perimeter defenses and constant patching cycles, critical systems remained vulnerable to sophisticated cyber attacks. This challenge sparked the creation of RunSafe’s groundbreaking immunization technology, which fundamentally disrupts the determinism that attackers rely on to exploit software vulnerabilities.

Joe and Doug Headshot

Founding RunSafe Security

Joe Saunders, CEO, brings a wealth of experience in building high-growth companies and commercializing innovative products at scale. Doug Britton, EVP, offers an extensive background in world-class security research. Together, they identified a critical gap in traditional security measures — the need for a proactive approach that prevents exploitation before it starts. This realization led to the development of RunSafe’s pioneering technology, designed to deny attackers the determinism they need to build reliable exploits, thereby reshaping the economics of security to favor defenders
