Our take
Email hacks are a real and immediate threat for businesses. Material Security is setting out to solve this problem by protecting companies and their employees.
Material Security was founded following the 2016 election hacking scandal, tapping into widespread demand for more resilient email protection. The company is led by a team of experienced ex-Google and Dropbox managers, which has shaped its tech considerably. The company is now valued at over $1 billion, an impressive testament to the quality of its solutions.
Material Security's main challenge will be competing with rival security providers. However, given its unicorn status, the company is likely to scale even further in the coming years and is well poised to open up a significant market lead.
