What is Gaps & Layers?

Gaps & Layers is a discovery engine for emerging, independent, and open-source security vendors.

The goal is to map the next generation of cybersecurity solutions—tools that are small, fast, and under-recognized compared to legacy giants.

Our Mission

While the security industry is dominated by established vendors, the most innovative solutions often come from smaller teams building faster, more focused tools. These emerging vendors are reshaping cybersecurity, but they're harder to discover amid the noise of marketing budgets and legacy platforms.

Gaps & Layers surfaces these hidden gems—the independent tools, open-source projects, and emerging vendors that are building the future of security. If you're looking beyond the usual suspects, this is where you'll find what's next.
