About CloudGuard®
Welcome to CloudGuard, where security is done different. UK-founded in 2020 by industry veterans Matt Lovell and Javid Khan, we started on a journey to develop an automated cybersecurity platform to rapidly improve our customers’ cybersecurity posture.

We’re changing the way businesses do cybersecurity. With automation and fresh thinking, we make security faster, smarter, and more effective. We help IT teams can take control of evolving threats with ease.
Built from experience
Meet our founders
Javid Khan, CTO
Javid is an industry thought leader with 22 years’ senior experience in KPMG and leading IT consultancies.

Javid has been voted AWS one to watch from 2015 and has been a global cloud ambassador and thought leader since. Javid has subsequently held global roles, leading on growth strategy and M&A.
Matt Lovell, CEO

Matt was voted a CIO100 member in 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2021 and a Microsoft Certified Technical Architect by invitation only from 2003.

Experience into results
Why did they create CloudGuard?
Both Javid and Matt have worked in security for decades. They’ve seen first hand that the traditional cybersecurity approaches run up against the same core limitations again and again. These issues are especially painful for those mid-size companies that don’t have massive tech budgets, but still need to take security seriously.
They saw that a fresh approach was needed to break out of this cycle.
And AI, ML and automation is the only approach that meets all of these needs: reducing manual input, alleviating complexity, reducing the need for skills, while reining in costs.
