The submission appears to be a low-effort or non-genuine entry with significant red flags. The domain 'shieldxsecurity.com' is not indexed by search engines, suggesting the website does not exist or is brand new, contradicting the claim of a 2020 launch and 30-person team. The traction claim 'most people have used my product' is factually impossible for a B2B cybersecurity consultancy. Product names contain typos ('Alert Stike') or mimic existing tools ('ThreatEye' by LiveAction). The financial metric ('2500000 marketcap') is ambiguous and unsupported. The project receives a near-zero score due to lack of verifiable existence and unrealistic claims.
