Boilerplate

About MATT, in three lengths.

One line

MATT by Mattersec Labs is the AI Security Supervisor for the modern software lifecycle: it keeps a product’s security rules holding, release after release.

About 50 words

MATT by Mattersec Labs is the AI Security Supervisor for the modern software lifecycle. Teams declare the plain-English rules their product must hold, and MATT runs the ExploitOps loop against the live product on every release: Declare, Observe, Prove, Fix, Remember. Each rule comes back holding or broken, with the evidence attached.

About 150 words

Mattersec Labs introduced ExploitOps in 2026, the practice of keeping a declared set of security rules holding as software changes, and built MATT to run it. A team writes down what must stay true about its product in plain English, such as a user never reading another user’s data or an agent acting only inside its scope. MATT observes what changed, proves each rule against the live product with the same attack patterns an adversary would use, hands a broken rule to its owner with the evidence, and re-proves the fix on every release so the same failure cannot return unnoticed. The company publishes the Record, a running account of the incidents of 2026 in which AI models found or exploited real systems, and an open attack library. It was founded by Subho Halder, co-founder of Appknox and lead author of the SecLens benchmark, and Aishwarya Jain, and is based in San Francisco.

  • Portrait of Subho Halder

    Subho Halder

    Co-founder & CEO

    Co-founded Appknox in 2014 and led it for twelve years, first as CTO and then as CEO, building mobile application security for enterprises. Lead author of SecLens, the benchmark of how frontier models detect security vulnerabilities. In application security since 2012, with acknowledgements from Apple, Google, Facebook and Microsoft. At Mattersec Labs, Subho leads MATT: the product, the research and the engagements.

  • Portrait of Aishwarya Jain

    Aishwarya Jain

    Co-founder & CBO

    Runs the commercial side of Mattersec Labs: customers, partnerships and go-to-market. Most of AJ’s work has been in crypto and blockchain: token launches, go-to-market and ecosystem growth for Web3 projects from Dubai, and advising CredShields, the Web3 security auditor, on security. The lesson of those years, that speed without trust creates risk, is why Mattersec exists.
