A decade of skyrocketing hornets

Hornetsecurity is celebrating! Founded under the name antispameurope ten years ago, the company has been considered as the absolute expert and pioneer in the area of cloud security for many years. Since 2007, Hornetsecurity has genuinely set a record for vertical ascent: The company has now expanded to more than 100 employees and secures data traffic for more than 35,000 companies in over 30 countries worldwide, including numerous renowned names like Dekra, Melitta or Konica Minolta.

It’s a success story made in Hannover, Germany: When Daniel Hofmann and Oliver Dehning founded the company in the summer of 2007, they gave the starting signal for a company that today plays a major role in the German IT security landscape. With a wide range of products in the area of email and web security, Hornetsecurity provides its customers with comprehensive security. The high quality of the solutions combined with an excellent service concept practiced by all employees has meant that the company has been able to enjoy two-digit growth figures for years.

This success should increase even more over the coming years. To this end, Hornetsecurity is steadily investing in new products and markets. But first comes the celebration: Hornetsecurity has invited sales partners, investors and company friends to join them over a period of two days. Visitors will have the opportunity to tour the offices at an open house before a celebration of the company anniversary in the evening, together with employees. Hornetsecurity will hold the Partnerdialog on the following day, an sales partner event which once again promises to have a record numbers of participants. Since the company was founded, the annual event has served as a springboard for intensive information exchange with the sales partners.

“We are very proud of what we have built up over the past ten years,” says Daniel Hofmann, one of the founders and managing directors of Hornetsecurity. “But this still doesn’t mean we can rest on our laurels. On the contrary: We also want to develop Hornetsecurity into one of the most important security providers on the international IT market.”
