About Us
MatrixCloud didn't start with buzzwords. We started with a problem. Businesses were getting hit. Ransomware. Data theft. Downtime that cost real money. So 8 of us sat down in 2016 and asked: why's cybersecurity so complicated? Why do small companies get left behind? We built MatrixCloud to change that. No fluff. No corporate theater. Just actual protection that works. Today we defend 347 companies across Romania. Banks. Hospitals. E-commerce shops. Manufacturing plants. They trust us because we're obsessed with keeping the bad guys out.
Over time, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, quality, and clear communication. We treat each project as a partnership and aim for outcomes that last.
Our Story
2016. Started in a cramped office near Piața Universității. Five servers. Too much coffee. Two founders who'd both been hit by ransomware (and refused to pay). We built our first detection system in 3 months. Clunky. But it worked. Word spread. By 2018 we had 47 clients. By 2020, the pandemic hit and everyone suddenly cared about security. We scaled fast. Hired talent from Bitdefender, Kaspersky, local startups. Opened our Craiova headquarters in 2021. Now we're 27 people deep. Still moving like a startup. Still refusing to sell garbage.

Meet Our Team
The people behind MatrixCloud
Radu Popescu
Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer
Spent 9 years at Kaspersky doing threat analysis. Then he got hacked himself (ironic). Built our core detection engine from scratch. Speaks Russian, Python, and profanity in equal measure. Obsesses over zero-day vulnerabilities.
Ana Mihai
Head of Client Operations
Former hospital IT director. Knows healthcare security inside-out. Runs our support team like a military operation—everyone responds in hours, not days. Won't tolerate excuses. Her clients trust her because she doesn't sleep much.
Vlad Ionescu
Lead Security Researcher
Ex-military cybersecurity unit. Hacks things for a living (legally). Finds vulnerabilities in our own systems before competitors do. Quiet guy. Terrifying when he talks about what's possible. Writes our threat intelligence reports.
We’re a team that values ownership, clarity, and growth. We celebrate wins, learn fast, and keep client outcomes at the center.
Our Core Values
The principles that guide everything we do
Attack First Thinking
We don't defend passively. We think like the attacker. What would we try? What'd work? Then we build walls there. Constantly. It's exhausting. It's also why we're good.
Radical Honesty
Your system has vulnerabilities. We tell you. Straight. No hiding behind reports nobody reads. No sugar-coating. If you're exposed, you need to know today, not in a PowerPoint six months from now.
Speed Over Perfection
Threats move fast. So do we. A good solution in 48 hours beats a perfect solution in six weeks. We ship. We iterate. We don't wait for everything to be shiny.
People Before Profit
Our clients are businesses with actual employees. Their data. Their livelihoods. We don't nickel-and-dime. We don't lock you into contracts that hurt. Fair pricing. Real support.
