YPOTHESI
TEACHES YOU HOW TO PREVENT
Led by CEO Natalia Fonseca, a Colombian lawyer graduated from Universidad Católica de Colombia, with a Master's in Political Science focused on Peace and Reconciliation from Università degli Studi di Salerno (Italy), and Javier Tobon lawyer from the same university, entrepreneur, defender, consultant, and expert in cybercrimes and cyber prevention, serving as Project Manager at Ypothesi, our company was born from years of frontline experience in Colombia's justice system.
As a former prosecutor, Natalia managed high-impact cases involving fraud, extortion, kidnapping, and cybercrime. Her work was instrumental in dismantling transnational criminal organizations that preyed on vulnerable victims. Recognizing that many of these threats are borderless or involve international criminal networks, we brought our mission to the United States through a National Interest initiative.
Our project is specifically designed to serve the U.S. national interest by leveraging our real-world expertise to empower American communities. Through online seminars, we teach children, teens, parents, teachers, and seniors the exact tactics used by transnational criminal organizations to attack their victims from scams, extortion, and kidnapping to harassment, sexual abuse, and sexual exploitation.
We use gamification, educational comics, animated mini-series, and real-life case videos to make prevention simple, human, and highly effective. Our bilingual (English/Spanish) programs are delivered online worldwide, with a special focus on protecting U.S. families and communities from these imported and cross-border threats.
We provide educational consulting and awareness training only.
We do not offer legal advice.
Knowledge is power.
Ypothesi teaches you how to prevent. Join us in strengthening the digital security of the United States — one family, one school, one community at a time.
WHY YPOTHESI?
​
Our name comes from the Ancient Greek word ὑπÏŒθεσις (hypóthesis), which is transliterated or translated as hypothesis or ypothesis. Its etymology breaks down as follows:
​
-
ὑπÏŒ (hypo-) = under, below, sub.
-
θÎσις (thésis) = placement, position, proposition.
-
​
For the Greeks, a hypóthesis was a proposition or assumption that was provisionally accepted as the basis for developing an argument or a demonstration.
​
Thus, our name is focused on hypotheses applied to cybersecurity, in the roles of awareness and prevention. Part of our inspiration arises from processes like Threat Hunting, which relies on hypotheses on the formulation of assumptions about possible threats to investigate and mitigate risks proactively.
