About Meta1st
Meta1st stands tall as a beacon of resilience. We are a progressive SAAS enterprise, dedicated to harnessing the power of AI to address the most critical vulnerabilities in the world of cybersecurity: the Human Layer.
Our journey began in February 2024 with a simple yet profound realisation – while machines and systems constantly evolve, human beings remain susceptible to risks. And often, it’s the people, not the machines, that become the weakest link in the cyber defence chain. With this perspective, Meta1st’s mission was to fortify this human layer against a spectrum of cyber risks.
Our Legacy
What sets Meta1st apart is the calibre and pedigree of our leadership. Our founders bring to the table not just deep expertise in cybersecurity but also an unmatched track record of steering some of the most successful cybersecurity ventures to unprecedented heights. Their vision, coupled with a team of seasoned professionals, positions Meta1st as not just a vendor but a partner in your cybersecurity journey.
Qasim Bhatti played a pivotal role in the digital transformation of WickHill, which was acquired by Rigby PE and rebranded as Nuvias, an EMEA-wide VAD. He later joined KnowBe4, where he led the UK-I region to 46% hyper-growth, with his strategies successfully replicated across international markets. Qasim also contributed to ConnectWise, driving a 22% increase in EMEA customer acquisitions during his tenure.
Meta1st also recently announced the launch of its cutting-edge platform dedicated to fortifying the human layer of cybersecurity through the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI). As cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, Meta1st’s AI tools offer an innovative and timely solution to address a critical gap: the need to outpace the threat actors using AI technologies to exploit human vulnerabilities.
The new enterprise SaaS platform harnesses the power of AI to address the most critical vulnerabilities in the world of cybersecurity: the Human Layer. The Meta1st product suite includes Phish 1st recognising that phishing is one of the most common gateways for cyber breaches. Phish 1st is not another phishing simulation tool, it is a sophisticated, AI-driven system. It is designed to not only test but also educate and empower employees to recognise and respond to cyber threats effectively.
Learn 1st delivers easy to access, cutting-edge, real-world cyber risk education. The Learn 1st platform offers interactive learning modules and customisable quizzes, ensuring that and organisation’s workforce is updated and always vigilant against the latest threats.
Analyse 1st is an AI-driven reporting button that enhances email security by empowering employees to identify and report malicious emails. Analyse 1st uses advanced algorithms to detect cyber threats and alert users, fostering a secure, aware workplace that feels empowered.
Meta1st enhances an organisation’s resilience by transforming how employees respond to phishing, social engineering, and other forms of cyberattacks. By simulating these threats in a safe, controlled environment, Meta1st prepares users to detect, react to, and mitigate potential breaches — ultimately reducing the risk of human error in cybersecurity.
