About us

At AMEOT, we are a team of professionals from various disciplines and backgrounds from Silicon Valley veterans and subject matter experts to young innovators and educators, all focused on changing the tide in the war against cybercrime. Founded in 2011 and incorporated in 2016 in Newport News, Virginia, our mission has always been to empower organizations to prevent cyber threats before they occur.

Our Reason Why

We looked at the adverse conditions created by cybercrime like budgetary uncertainty, loss of trust for brands, and the mistrust of technology, and we committed our time and energy to:

• Eliminating Ransom Attacks and Payments: By preventing breaches before they occur, organizations no longer face the dilemma of paying ransom to cybercriminals.
  
  

• Reducing Security-Related Downtime: Proactive threat prevention ensures that operations run smoothly without unexpected interruptions.
  
  

• Lowering Stress and Higher Morale: Employees and security teams experience peace of mind, knowing that robust preventive measures are in place.
  
  

• Decreasing Security Spending: Preventing incidents reduces the costs associated with incident response, remediation, and recovery.
  
  

Our Niche

Most security solutions rely on detection and response, which depends on recognizing known threats. However, cybercriminals are constantly employing new tactics that bypass these systems which leaves organizations permanently vulnerable to unknown threats.

Recognizing this critical gap, AMEOT engaged directly with industry executives to understand their cybersecurity challenges and unmet needs. Detection alone wasn’t enough they needed attacks to be stopped before the damage occurred. From those conversations, Sentry was born: a Zero Trust preventive layer purpose-built to move cybersecurity beyond detection and into true prevention. 

How We Are Zero Trust

Sentry operates on three of the Zero Trust principles. First, the principle of "never trust, always verify," ensures that all unknown or untrusted programs are immediately isolated from your systems and data by virtualization until they can be found to be 100% safe. Second, the principle of Continuous monitoring, our AI-assisted, security operations team is actively monitoring and threat hunting 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And third, the principle of micro-segmentation, which usually applies to segregating networked computers, at AMEOT, we separate runtimes into separate instances of isolation, allowing workflows to continue, even when applications are vulnerable or questionable, without the risk of unauthorized access or cross-contamination. This prevention-first approach outperforms detection-first tools seeking known threats by preventing known and emerging cyber threats and implementing zero trust at a foundational level. 

Our Partners

At AMEOT, we collaborate with a diverse network of Cybersecurity Providers, Practitioners, and reseller partners who share our conviction that cybersecurity is a winnable war. Spanning across continents, our partners are united by a common goal: empowering organizations worldwide with preventive strategies to combat cybercriminals intent on stealing data, eroding brand trust, and diminishing revenues. Together, we are committed to delivering proactive solutions that safeguard businesses against the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape.

Our Roadmap

Our mission is to integrate prevention seamlessly and efficiently into the future of cybersecurity. We’re focused on empowering cybersecurity leaders and practitioners in high-impact sectors with the knowledge and tools to adopt preventive strategies. With solutions like Sentry, organizations can shift from reactive damage control to proactive defense, transforming cybersecurity from a constant battle into a winnable, strategic advantage.
