Growth fueled by expanded AI innovation, global reach, executive leadership, and education to combat AI-enabled organized cybercrime for ALL businesses

COLUMBIA, MD — July 30, 2026 — Huntress today announced it has surpassed $250 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) with 65% YoY growth and increased the number of identities and endpoints under protection by over 400% since reaching unicorn status in 2024. Meanwhile, the company continues to maintain 130% net revenue retention and a 99% CSAT score, reflecting the security outcomes driven by the expanding Huntress Agentic Platform in combatting cybercrime. Huntress now protects more than 270,000 businesses, 14 million identities, and 5.5 million endpoints across 100+ countries.

Cybercrime has become the world’s third-largest economy, with costs projected to reach $12.2 trillion annually by 2031. AI is making cybercrime more organized, automated, and accessible to low-skill attackers, raising the stakes for businesses already in the crosshairs. Huntress’ growth directly fuels its mission to protect ALL businesses against these modern cyberthreats by delivering the world-class expertise and security outcomes businesses need to fight back.

“Protecting more than 270,000 businesses, and the employees, customers, families, and livelihoods behind them, makes me incredibly proud of our team, who moves at a breakneck pace to do the right thing,” said Kyle Hanslovan, Co-Founder and CEO of Huntress. “But there are more than 270 million businesses worldwide that need protecting, and cybercriminals are working their hardest every day to wreck them. This growth is not the finish line. It gives us the fuel to make bigger bets to protect more of what people have spent their lives building.”

Since its Series D in June 2024, Huntress has expanded its platform, extended protection worldwide, and invested in the innovation, partnerships, and talent required to stay ahead of modern adversaries, including:

• Expansion of the Huntress Agentic Security Platform: Rapidly accelerating platform momentum, Huntress launched 3 new products (Managed SIEM, Managed Identity Security Posture Management, Managed Endpoint Security Posture Management) in under 2 years, and appointed Daniel Westendorf as its first Chief Innovation Officer to accelerate AI innovation and product delivery. In addition, Huntress recently launched its mobile app for IOS, giving customers and partners the ability to monitor their security from anywhere, with an expansion to Google Play coming soon.
• Protection Across More Than Half the Globe: Huntress expanded to 100+ countries through reseller and distribution partnerships across EMEA, APAC, and Latin America, including Ingram Micro, QBS Software, Dicker Data, MSP Nordics, and Giacom. The result is the infrastructure of over 20,000 sellers worldwide built for faster adoption, less friction, and protection reaching businesses through local channels they trust. Huntress also expanded its global strategic partnership with Microsoft to help partners maximize existing Microsoft investments and deliver greater value to customers, creating for the 99% of businesses outside the Fortune 500 what Microsoft and CrowdStrike have built for the enterprise.
• Extending Cyber Education to All: Modeled after threats observed across the 270k businesses it protects, Huntress Security Awareness Training (SAT) has now reached more than 1.1 million learners, and continues to deliver practical cybersecurity education to broader industries and ALL businesses. The company has also expanded its education programming to include 50+ new SAT trainings on emerging tradecraft so far this year, launched a new flagship cyber edutainment series _declassified, launched an interactive ransomware simulator, and introduced a new global brand focused on making cybersecurity more accessible.
• Scaling the Talent Behind Stronger Security Outcomes: Huntress has grown its global workforce 191% in two years to more than 800 employees, including 378% growth in EMEA and 183% in APAC. The company also named former Arctic Wolf executive, Kristin Dean, as Chief People and Administration Officer to scale the talent and culture behind its continued growth.
• Industry Recognition for Growth, Innovation, and Security Outcomes: Huntress was named to the Inc. 5000 and Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for their rapid YoY growth. Huntress was also named to the Fortune Cyber 60 and Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies list, solidifying its place as a leader shaping the industry through sustained innovation. The company also earned top honors at the SC Awards in both the U.S. and U.K., reinforcing the impact of its platform and security outcomes worldwide.

Huntress’ continued investment in stronger security outcomes enables all businesses to keep operating, growing, and serving their communities, knowing they are protected.

“When one of the cities we support was hit with a sophisticated account compromise, the standard playbook would have meant wiping hundreds of systems and taking public services offline for months” said Jay Mellon, Owner of AtNetPlus, an IT solutions provider. “Instead, Huntress’ telemetry proved the attacker never gained a foothold, so we ran a targeted response over the following weeks with no disruption to city services. More than saving time and money, it meant a local government never had to tell residents their services were down.”

The Huntress Agentic Security Platform combines purpose-built Endpoint Detection and Response, Identity Threat Detection and Response, Security Awareness Training, SIEM, and Security Posture Management with a 24/7 world-class, AI-centric Security Operations Center, making elite cybersecurity accessible to every business.

“When we launched Cyrenity Cyber, Huntress was the first partner we brought into our stack because we knew we needed protection we could trust from day one. For us, security is about serving the people and businesses that depend on us, not just sending alerts and walking away,” said Chris Loehr, Co-founder and Executive Vice President at Cyrenity Cyber. “Huntress shares that mindset, helping us contain attacks before they turn into larger business problems and giving our clients the confidence to keep operating, growing, and serving their own communities without disruption.”
