Every Company Needs Three Things to Succeed
All three must be strong from the start. Product and Money often get priority. But People - the Third Pillar - can't wait until later.
Who we are
Every company is built on three fundamental pillars: Product, Money, and People. Without all three, progress stalls. And critically, People can't be addressed "later."
We founded Third Pillar because we kept seeing the same pattern: organizations prioritizing product innovation and capital strategy while treating hiring as something to "figure out later." By the time they recognized that talent gaps were slowing execution or creating vulnerabilities, the damage was done.
In cybersecurity, this problem is magnified. You can have cutting-edge technology and substantial funding, but without the right people architecting, monitoring, and defending your systems, you're building on sand. Firewalls don't configure themselves. Threats don't detect themselves. Incidents don't resolve themselves. People do.
Specialized Knowledge
We're not generalist recruiters who dabble in cybersecurity. This is all we do. We understand the difference between a SOC analyst and a threat hunter, between OSCP and CISSP, between someone who can fill a seat and someone who can transform your security posture.
Strategic Partnership
We don't just fill roles, we help you build teams. We work with you to understand your security roadmap, identify gaps before they become critical, and find talent that aligns with both your technical needs and organizational culture.
Our Mission
To ensure that no organization treats their people as an afterthought. To connect exceptional cybersecurity talent with companies that need them at the right time, in the right role, for the right reasons.
Let us help you get it right from day one.
