Firehost secures $25 million funding

New funding round to accelerate innovation, growth as secure cloud leader continues rapid momentum for secure cloud computing and data protection.

FireHost, the secure cloud company, has announced a $25 million Series E funding round led by its longtime investment partner, The Stephens Group, LLC. The latest round fuels FireHost’s global growth as the leading secure cloud provider, helping customers with compliance and security needs – from healthcare to retail companies – protect critical applications and data.


The funding is reflective of FireHost’s rapid growth, due in large part to the security technology it pioneered that differentiates its secure cloud business from other competitors as well as its uncompromising perspective that companies should implement secure cloud operating practices and not settle for checkbox compliance. By serving customers sincere about security protection, FireHost has doubled revenue in each of the past three years.


The Series E funding will be used to further the company’s product development, sales, and brand awareness.

The funds will strengthen FireHost’s ability to invest in all aspects of secure cloud computing, particularly to provide further separation in the technology required to protect customers from increasingly complex security threats.

In 2013, FireHost blocked more than 100 million hack attempts targeted at its customers.
