Laser Focused On Solving Our Customers' Biggest Data Problems

Our Story

Ridgeline was founded in 2015 by a group of men and women who have cumulatively spent more than half a century contributing to the U.S. national security mission. Our goal at the time was to fill critical technical gaps impacting our customers in the U.S. government.

Nine years on, Ridgeline is now laser-focused on solving one of the toughest problems we know our customers face, ubiquitous data collection, through our innovative approach to data privacy and secure infrastructure. These threats cut across every industry. We’ve expanded our offerings to meet the unique needs of customers in the Government and business worlds.

Our Mission

In a reality where data lives forever and knows no bounds, Ridgeline gives our customers a competitive edge by delivering the ability to manage their digital signatures.

Our Vision

Our users operate with enhanced visibility and control of their digital signatures, enabling them to make the optimal decision every time.

These are our non-negotiables. The values we want all of our teammates to embrace and live out.

We’re honest, empathetic, and committed to doing what’s right for our teammates, customers, and community. We strive to be deliberate, use good judgment, and hold each other to high ethical standards.

Live Our Mission

We exist to solve our customers’ toughest data problems, and we put the mission of our team and customers at the forefront of everything we do.

We find the best way to tackle challenges by harnessing inventive mindsets within our teams. We remain flexible and agile as we build the path, then codify our achievements by adding process and structure to create dependable and repeatable solutions.

Awards & Accolades

Our team has accomplished some truly impactful things in the past few years, and we’re grateful for the encouragement we’ve received from our industry peers along the way.
