About Candor
Candor is agentic data loss prevention (DLP) and insider risk management. Employees share sensitive data with third parties and email source code to personal inboxes every day. For fast-moving companies, protecting these crown jewels and customer trust is core to closing deals. Legacy DLP tools can cross off compliance checkboxes but flood security teams with false positives. Candor's AI agents understand both the data movement and the person behind it, giving lean security teams broad coverage without the noise.
