Sherlock

Sherlock focuses on providing innovative, secure information technology and data services for initiatives. The job it does: assessing, monitoring and responding to security threats on your behalf.

Who is it for? Mostly companies without a full security team. They also list Big Data and Cyber Security, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small company team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Sherlock is based in La Jolla, California and founded in 2013. Their site is sherlock.sdsc.edu.
