Sucuri is a company started by Daniel Cid in 2010 (founder of the OSSEC project as well). Its history stems to another open source project by Daniel known as OWL, which later morphed into the Network-Based Integrity Monitoring System (NBIMS) for websites. The early premise for Sucuri was to provide webmasters a tool that provides visibility into the state of security for their websites. In 2010, Sucuri became a private LLC in Delaware, and Dre Armeda was invited as a co-founder. In 2011, Tony Perez joined the team as the third co-founder.
