About Kasada
Brands win or lose on trust and experience. We protect both.
Kasada shields the world’s most recognisable digital brands from abuse that erodes loyalty and revenue - account takeovers, credential stuffing, scalping, scraping, and fraud - without punishing real customers. Our edge: we stop abuse at the very first request, even from never-seen tactics, preserving conversion, availability, and brand reputation across web, mobile, and API.
Born under the Sydney Harbour Bridge and now operating globally, our team pairs deep adversarial R&D with a product and customer experience that’s loved by operators. If you care about fair access on launch day, clean checkout experiences, and measurable brand trust, you’ll feel at home here.
