New York, NY. – March 9, 2017 – Fireglass, the leading web isolation security company, today announced that CNBC has named the company to the inaugural Upstart 25 list. Emerging from Israel’s cybersecurity industry, Fireglass was selected among hundreds of nominees to place on this exclusive list that CNBC described as “a diverse group of companies that are building brands, breaking industry barriers and scaling quickly on the path to becoming tomorrow’s household names.”

“A year after we emerged from stealth, Fireglass is hitting stride and is experiencing tremendous momentum,” said Guy Guzner, CEO and co-founder of Fireglass. “Our True Isolation™ platform is seeing rapid adoption – particularly among Fortune 500 enterprises that are looking for an effective solution that puts an end to malware, ransomware and phishing.
