Guardz Builds Momentum in 2026 with 300% Growth and Platform Innovation

Guardz, the cybersecurity company empowering Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT professionals to deliver unified, AI-native protection for small businesses, highlighted key milestones achieved in 2025. The company posted an impressive 300% year-over-year ARR growth, signaling rising demand for its AI-driven unified detection and response platform. In addition, Guardz surpassed 100 employees, fueling innovation and supporting its global expansion initiatives. Earlier in 2025, the company secured a $56 million USD investment, reflecting strong investor confidence in its mission to transform cybersecurity delivery for MSPs.

“Our progress throughout 2025 reflects both the dedication Guardz has to supporting the MSP community with best-in-class solutions across core security controls and the growing demand for cybersecurity solutions for the SMB market,” said Dor Eisner, CEO and co-founder of Guardz. “As AI-driven threats accelerate and security complexity increases, we’ve focused on expanding our platform, strengthening our partner ecosystem, and delivering agentic protection – and as we look ahead to 2026, we remain focused on continuing to innovate to empower MSPs to stay ahead of emerging threats while protecting small businesses at scale.”
