Very Good Security

Very Good Security (VGS), founded in 2015, is a data security company that specializes in replacing sensitive information with secure, format-preserving tokens. This approach allows applications to process and use data - such as payment details - without ever handling the actual sensitive values, removing the burden on companies to store such information themselves. The company's core technical domains span payment tokenization, data security, and API integration.

The firm's product suite includes a PCI-compliant Vault for secure data storage, a Card Management Platform for handling card-related operations, and a Network Tokens service providing network-level tokenization for payments. Additional offerings include an Account Updater service to maintain current account information and Card Attributes solutions for managing card data. VGS reports that it has stored over 3 billion tokens globally through its platform.

VGS primarily serves the financial services, fintech, and e-commerce sectors. The company positions its technology as foundational infrastructure for what it terms "agentic commerce," where automated systems handle transactions and data flows without direct human oversight.
