CUJO is a smart firewall that shields all of your home devices against cyber security threats. Using a combination of cloud services, machine learning, and mobile apps to manage your network, CUJO's revolutionary plug-n-play solution gives you peace of mind while online.
***Why CUJO?*** With our homes full of connected devices we've become easy targets for criminal hackers. You read it in the news every day: baby monitors, smart TVs, PCs, and tablets - all hacked. Even the FBI director now tapes his webcam so as not to be hacked at home. So ask yourself, with your home fully connected, what is the most precious experience or data that is now open to hackers? And what keeps it safe?
***CUJO brings business-level security to guard your home***. When we see a new threat, we immediately notify all other CUJOs to protect against that threat.
User experience (watch the videos as well):
- Plug-n-Play CUJO with your router
- Download our app which shows every device on your network
- When we block a threat, we notify your app.
*** Tech High-Level ***
- CUJO connects either as a DHCP server or in bridge modem between your modem and router.
- We collect meta data (packet headers) to run your network traffic past threat intel feeds and to build statistical models for what is normal.
- We don’t block devices, we block malicious intent (source and destination).
- We’re not ‘hack-proofing’. But we believe that CUJO is a unique system, an immunity system, for your home Internet security. You should still stay vigilant when online and you should still keep a free Antivirus on your PCs (although AV is largely ineffective in blocking today’s threats).
- There’s minimal latency because we don’t do DPI, don’t collect full packets, and our hardware is a work horse.
- CUJO runs a dual chip 1GHz processor normally used for IDS and servers. It has a 1Gb Ethernet card.
***About The Team***. Our team brings 50+ years of collective enterprise security experience (getcujo.com/our-story). We’ve started building CUJO in early 2015 and are shipping in June. TechCrunch named CUJO a top early stage startup at Disrupt Battlefield NY 2016. SXSX nominated us for their Innovative World Tech award. Our HQ is in Los Angeles. We’re very passionate about security and design. And yes, there’s a rabid dog in the wild also named CUJO :).
Now on Amazon and GETCUJO.com. $99 for device, then $8.99/m for service. ***Hunters***, get $10 off when you buy on our site (use code ‘producthunt’) AND 180 days of FREE service.

@einarasg you mention your team's "50+ years of collective enterprise security experience" and link to your "our story" page, but don't list any of the team's last names or describe any of your respective experience. As a well-connected technologist with 20+ years in information security, I'd love to know more about your team than just your first names. Can you provide a link to more in-depth descriptions of who makes up the core braintrust?
