Bring Fortune 500 cybersecurity into every home and small business.
Enterprise-grade protection, redesigned to be affordable, plug-and-play, and accessible to everyone.
The threat is real, and it’s already here.
The FBI logs over 800,000 internet crime complaints a year. Damages exceed $12 billion. It’s not a future problem. It’s happening right now, every day, to families and small businesses across the country.
Enterprise security used to cost $100K+ and require a team. Now it doesn’t.
- ✕ Requires a dedicated security team
- ✕ Out of reach for homes and small business
- ✕ Months of configuration
- ✕ Built for boardrooms, not people
- ✓ Same caliber of protection
- ✓ Plug-and-play, no IT degree
- ✓ 5-minute setup from the app
- ✓ Built for homes and small business
So we built one.
Rio is enterprise-grade cybersecurity, redesigned to work in any home or small office. No IT degree. No subscriptions. No software to install on every device. Plug it in and you’re protected.
Our mission is to give the people the industry left behind the same caliber of protection the Fortune 500 takes for granted.
John Hui
Founder & CEO
John has spent 30+ years in networking and computing hardware. He founded and led eMachines, served as a senior leader at Packard Bell, helped scale Foxconn’s networking division, and built consumer cybersecurity at PC Matic. He has shipped equipment into tens of millions of American homes.
He watched the threats evolve while the hardware stayed the same. He watched families and small businesses get hit because nobody was building real protection for them. So he built Rio.
What we believe
Start at the router.
Every packet passes through it. Defend at the router and you defend everything, including the IoT devices that can’t defend themselves.
No expertise required.
Security that needs a degree to operate only protects the people who already have one. We refuse to ship anything that complicated.
Affordable, or it doesn’t matter.
$50K enterprise solutions don’t reach the people most at risk. Rio is $249, plug-and-play, works behind any ISP modem.
By the numbers
Help us close the gap.
Same enterprise-grade security the Fortune 500 takes for granted, now in a $249 router.
