Our take

Fortanix is a cybersecurity company on a mission to revolutionize cloud security and privacy. Think of it as a digital bodyguard for your most sensitive data, safeguarding everything from keys to applications against both internal and external threats.

Since its launch in 2016, ZFortanix has secured some serious partnerships, with the likes of Intel, Microsoft, and Google. It's also earned the trust of some big brand names, including Adidas, PayPal, the US Department of Defense, and the University of California, San Francisco.

But what really makes Fortanix stand out is its growth. In 2022, when cybersecurity investments were scarce, the company raised a successful Series C round, proving its worth in a tough market. Since then, it's been strengthening its partnerships, expanding its offerings, and making significant strides in the ASEAN/APAC markets.
