140K+ security contacts. Zero patience for fear-based pitches.
Security and dev-tools buyers are the most technical, most skeptical audience in B2B - they've lived through a breach news cycle of fear-based pitches and they ignore anything that reads as marketing fluff. Procurement gatekeeping also splits the economic buyer from the technical evaluator, so a generic list rarely reaches the right person twice. Ken qualifies each company against your ICP with AI and filters on tech stack, on top of 140K+ security contacts (and 2.3M+ across software), then personalizes every email with the specificity this audience actually respects.

Signals Ken can actually prove.
This audience distrusts guesswork. Ken acts on real engagement and scores real fit - nothing else.
Multi-click intent on security whitepapers and SOC2 pages
A security lead who clicks your docs or demo link more than once is showing real intent. Ken flags it and can fire the next touch automatically or route the reply to you.
Re-engage quiet security buyers
An engineering lead who engaged and then went quiet gets picked back up. Ken watches for clicks that stop and re-approaches with a different angle before the thread goes cold.
Sort cybersecurity & dev tools replies the moment they land
Every reply is classified the moment it lands - interested, not interested, or out of office - and routed or handled automatically, so real conversations reach you and the noise does not.
Qualified to stack and posture
'Fintech companies with 200+ employees and no listed CISO' or 'companies running large Kubernetes clusters' isn't a dropdown filter anywhere else. Ken's AI reads each company's site, team page, and tech footprint and scores it against your exact criteria.
Built for the most skeptical technical buyer in B2B.
Filter on the compliance and stack details that matter here.
“Companies in healthcare with 200+ employees and no listed CISO” isn't a filter any generic tool offers. Ken's AI reads each company's site and team page and scores it against your actual ICP - our clients report under 10% unqualified leads.
Credibility over urgency, every time.
This audience distrusts fear-based pitches and rewards specificity. Ken writes from real prospect data - stack signals, team structure, compliance posture - inside human-written frameworks. In our 500k-email study, Ken personalization lifted engagement 127% while generic AI copy dropped it 25%.
Land in inboxes guarded by the tightest spam filters in tech.
Security teams run the strictest email defenses of any buyer. Ken sends on proprietary SMTP with warm IPs and pre-checks every email against a replica of Gmail's spam algorithm. Moving clients onto our infrastructure took inbox placement from 32% to 89%. Multichannel sequences can add LinkedIn connection requests and messages from LinkedIn accounts you connect on Ken AI.

Frequently Asked Questions
What teams ask before running outbound for Cybersecurity & Dev Tools with Ken.
Ken Search covers 140K+ contacts at computer and network security companies, plus 2.3M+ across the broader software development category, inside Ken's database of 250M people and 24M companies. Slice them by seniority, function, company size, compliance-relevant industry, and AI-qualified fit.
Yes. Use tech and tooling keywords to find companies running specific infrastructure - AWS, Kubernetes, specific CI/CD tools - filter by company size and compliance-relevant industry, and layer on subjective AI criteria like “fintech companies without a listed CISO.” Ken's AI reads each company's site and team to qualify it.
It works when the targeting is precise and the copy is credible, not urgent. Ken qualifies every lead against your ICP with AI, then personalizes subject line, opener, body, and PS from the prospect's own stack and public profile instead of generic fear framing. That combination produced 127% higher engagement than unpersonalized copy in our 500k-email study, and 7x more meetings per 10k contacts than the industry average.
A list export is step one of nine. Ken runs the whole engine: sourcing, triple email verification, AI qualification, segmentation, copywriting, personalization, sending on managed infrastructure with warm IPs, reply handling, and analytics. You approve the campaign; Ken does the grunt work.
