Huntress says it has surpassed $250 million in annual recurring revenue and now protects more than 270,000 businesses, marking further growth in managed security platforms serving small and mid-sized organisations.
The company reported 65% year-on-year growth, 130% net revenue retention, and a 99% customer satisfaction score. It also said the number of identities and endpoints under protection has grown by more than 400% since it reached unicorn status in 2024. Huntress now says it protects 14 million identities and 5.5 million endpoints across more than 100 countries.
The commercial figures reflect a wider operating pattern in enterprise security. Smaller organisations face ransomware, account compromise, malware, credential theft, and business email compromise without the security staffing, tooling, or incident response maturity of large enterprises. Many rely on managed service providers to run everyday IT, Microsoft environments, endpoint operations, and first-line support.
Huntress has expanded its platform since its June 2024 Series D round, adding managed SIEM, managed identity security posture management, and managed endpoint security posture management. It has appointed Daniel Westendorf as chief innovation officer, launched a mobile app for iOS, and expanded reseller and distribution partnerships across EMEA, APAC, and Latin America.
Kyle Hanslovan, co-founder and CEO of Huntress, said: “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. 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.”
The EMEA expansion gives the announcement additional relevance for UK and European channel partners. Huntress says its EMEA workforce has grown by 378% over two years, faster than its overall workforce growth of 191%. Distribution and reseller relationships with partners including Ingram Micro, QBS Software, Dicker Data, MSP Nordics, and Giacom are intended to reach customers through local providers they already use.
Managed security delivery has become an important route into resilience for organisations outside the largest enterprise accounts. Endpoint detection, identity monitoring, security awareness, SIEM, posture management, and response support can be difficult to build internally. Packaging those capabilities for MSPs changes how smaller businesses buy and operate security.
Jay Mellon, owner of AtNetPlus, described one public-sector support case: “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. 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 growth also increases dependency on managed platforms and channel operations. Buyers need evidence of detection quality, response support, identity coverage, integration with existing environments, and resilience of the service itself. As more small and mid-sized organisations outsource security operations, managed security providers become part of the operational fabric rather than an add-on technology purchase.
