Cybersecurity

TLDR

Belgium's cybersecurity sector is anchored by Aikido Security, Guardsquare, and Intigriti, covering application security, mobile protection, and vulnerability disclosure.

Overview

Belgian cybersecurity companies punch above their weight in the European market. Aikido Security (Ghent-based, Wintercircus resident) provides developer-first security tooling. Guardsquare specializes in mobile application protection. Intigriti runs one of Europe's largest bug bounty and vulnerability disclosure platforms.

WiseBee rounds out the sector with additional security tooling.

The sector benefits from strong academic foundations and proximity to NATO and EU institutions in Brussels, which create demand for cybersecurity products.
