Today, we’re officially introducing Defakto.
For the past 3 years, our team has been building the platform that will define how enterprises secure non-human identity. The workloads, APIs, and AI agents that now outnumber humans 45:1 in every organization.
We’re not managing secrets better. We’re eradicating them entirely.
Legacy IAM was built for people. Defakto was built for the 90% of enterprise interactions that happen between machines. From discovery and governance to dynamic identity issuance and AI agent security, we’re creating the foundation that autonomous infrastructure requires.
This rebrand from SPIRL to Defakto represents more than new colors and a new name. It represents our commitment to becoming the Defakto standard for how enterprises secure their most critical and most overlooked identities.
Backed by XYZ Venture Capital , The General Partnership, WndrCo, Bloomberg Beta, J.P. Morgan, Adverb Ventures, and Michael Coates with production deployments at Fortune 2000 enterprises, we’re just getting started.
Welcome to the future of identity. Welcome to Defakto.
