Our journey

Anton and Vincenz both worked in the insurance sector and witnessed the sudden rise of cyber attacks over the years.

After they met and brainstormed how to tackle this problem, they came up with the idea to combine cyber security and insurance.

Thus, they founded their own company: Baobab. Just like the tree, Baobab stands for security and support in any circumstances.
