Our mission is to eliminate phishing and identity breaches by making invisible, encrypted access the global security standard.
For decades, businesses treated identification and authentication as one, exposing users—and enterprises to phishing and credential theft. MyCena changes that. As the first solution to fully separate the two, we eliminate all human-managed credentials by replacing them with encrypted, invisible access keys. With our patented ML-DAES architecture, users never see, share, or manage credentials removing the entry point for breaches. The result: unphishable access, reduced IT workload by up to 40%, and seamless compliance with frameworks like GDPR, DORA, and ISO 27001.
When MyCena® co-founder Julia O’Toole saw that identification and authentication were two fundamentally different equations — for example presenting your passport at border control versus using a key to unlock your front door —she realizes that mixing identity with access was the reason behind most breaches.
After years of struggling to manage her own passwords, Julia O’Toole had a breakthrough during a visit to the ancient Greek city of Mycenae, known for its layered defenses. Standing beneath the city’s impressive Lion’s Gate, she saw how digital security could follow the same principle. Combining mathematics with neuroscience, MyCena®’s Multi-Layer Dynamic Access Encryption System (ML-DAES) was born to replace vulnerable identity-based credentials and points of failure with dynamic, multi-layered encrypted authentication.
Every organization from fast-moving startups to global enterprises deserves unbreakable access security. MyCena® eliminates phishing, credential theft, and unauthorized access by removing human-managed credentials from the equation. Our mission is to help businesses build phishing-proof environments, protecting data, infrastructure, and operations at every level. By adopting the ML-DAES standard, companies create a secure, compliant foundation for scalable, breach-free growth.
