8 Years in the business
About Banyax
Banyax started in 2018, in Dallas, with a question two founders couldn’t shake: why did world-class cybersecurity stay reserved for a handful of large corporations, while everyone else was left exposed?
Top-tier cybersecurity for every size of business.
Banyax was founded in Dallas in 2018 to solve a specific problem: mid-market and growing enterprises needed the same detection, response and threat-intelligence capabilities as global banks — but without the multi-million-dollar SOC buildout.
Our answer is a nearshore AI-Led, Human-Supervised MSSP delivered from Monterrey and Dallas. AI agents handle the scale. MITRE-aligned analysts handle the judgment. Clients see everything, in real time, through Banyax Quest™.
Today Banyax protects 75+ organizations and 150,000+ users across North America and Latin America — and proves risk reduction every quarter through 8 measurable KRIs.
