technology gadgets of 2009. Holds 30 patents.
As a parent, I know firsthand how difficult it is to keep our kids safe online.

use. In many cases, products are designed to keep you and your family online
more without considering your digital health and safety.

software development. Led the team at PortalPlayer that developed multiple

GRYPHON IS USING AI TO MAKE PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY ONLINE EASY.

Gryphon's mission is to equip families with cutting-edge technology, empowering
them to reclaim control over their online safety.

Today, many primary threats to families are from online, often infiltrating
through the home WiFi router.

Gryphon offers an AI-powered network protection service, packaged in a robust
mesh WiFi system with an intuitive mobile app, all designed to easily safeguard
families online.




PARENTS TODAY FACE UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES:

 * Kids are spending upwards of 8 hours per day in front of screens
 * According to the NIH, excessive screen time is correlated with detrimental
   health effects such as poor sleep, high blood pressure, obesity, and other
   mental health issues
 * Depression and suicide rates among teens have been increasing




HOME NETWORKS ARE INCREASINGLY PRONE TO CYBERCRIME

 * 80% of connected devices in the home are vulnerable to hacking (Rambus)
 * 600% increase in cybercrimes over the past couple of years (NCBI)
 * Cybercrimes against children have risen 20% in 2022 (source: FBI)
 * Every new connected device such as a printer or a webcam increases
   your exposure to identity theft, invasion of privacy, or worse








THE PARENTAL CONTROL MARKET IS EXPECTED TO GROW TO $2.9B BY 2030 WITH THE
OVERALL CYBER SECURITY MARKET PROJECTED TO GROW TO $540 BILLION BY 2030





TRACTION


GROWING SOFTWARE LICENSING BUSINESS

Gryphon HomeConnect Platform enables the Gryphon protection software to easily
run on any hardware. This opens up brand new licensing opportunities with
telecom equipment makers and broadband service providers. We recently signed a
licensing agreement with a major equipment maker. The licensing pipeline is
growing and represents over $20 Million in new software licensing business in
the next few years.





KINGSCROWD, THE LEADING EQUITY CROWDFUNDING ANALYST, HAS GIVEN GRYPHON A SOLID
4.4 STAR RATING.





AI TECHNOLOGY THAT EMPOWERS YOU






The Gryphon system combines cloud-based machine learning (AI), an elegant
high-performance mesh WiFi router, and a simple-to-use app that makes it simple
to protect the family.





ALL-IN-ONE SIMPLE PLATFORM

The Gryphon system includes everything you need to protect your family from
online threats in a simple easy-to-use package.







YOUR ROUTER IS THE FRONT DOOR TO YOUR HOME INTERNET

Every connected device in your home goes through your WiFi router - making it
the perfect place to control and protect the home Internet. 

An intelligent network layer firewall is necessary for any enterprise, so why
don't we have it for our homes?  Gryphon delivers that enterprise-class
protection without the need for an IT management team.

Every connected device is protected without a complicated setup on each device.




FAMILY FRIENDLY APP












AI MAKES IT SIMPLE

With 10 patents issued and more pending, Gryphon has one of the most advanced
protection platforms on the market.  Gryphon's AI continuously improves and
adapts to protect your network from all online threats.





PROTECTION THAT GOES WITH YOU

With the patented Homebound™ app, Gryphon provides on-the-go mobile protection
when your family is away from your home network.  It's the only solution that
intelligently routes traffic back to Gryphon from any network.   So even if you
are on public WiFi, 5G, or your friend's WiFi,  you have the full Gryphon
protection.
