About Us

We Build the Internet's Invisible Layer.

Our mission is to eliminate the attack surface entirely — a requirement in a world where GenAI can scan and exploit infrastructure faster than humans can respond.

If attackers can see you, they can breach you.

LayerV.ai is the commercial implementation of the Cloud Security Alliance's OpenNHP protocol — an emerging internet standard for network invisibility, co-authored by our team and backed by global institutions.

Our Approach

How We Think About Security

Dark by Default

In a dark forest, survival means staying hidden. We make your infrastructure invisible — not just protected.

Open Standards, Not Lock-in

Built on the Cloud Security Alliance's OpenNHP protocol. Auditable code, public spec, no vendor dependency.

Preemptive, Not Reactive

Detection assumes breach. We eliminate the attack surface before scanners can find it.

Our Values

How We Work

Ship Security, Not Theater

We build things that work, not things that look impressive in slides. Every feature must reduce real attack surface.

Prove It

Demo over deck. We show, don't tell. If we can't demonstrate it working, we don't claim it.

Builders First

Security that developers hate doesn't get deployed. We obsess over DX because adoption is the only metric that matters.

Join Us

Rebuild the Internet for the AI Age

We co-authored the OpenNHP spec with CSA and presented it at the UN. Now we're rebuilding the internet's security layer for the AI age. Small team, hard problems, foundational infrastructure.

Cryptography

Design the cryptographic primitives for post-quantum network hiding. Your work ships as internet infrastructure, not a paper.

Protocol Engineering

You've implemented RFC specs, not just read them. Help us turn OpenNHP into the security layer the internet never had.

Backend Engineering

You've built systems that handle millions of connections. Make our control plane the fastest path to invisible.

Bay Area or remote. Early team, meaningful equity. No recruiters, no leetcode — just show us what you've built.
