Company profile

researched Aug 2026

FortifyData is a Kennesaw, Georgia-based cybersecurity software company that operates a consolidated cyber risk management platform for security and compliance teams. The platform combines external and internal attack surface management, vulnerability management, third-party (vendor) risk management, cloud security posture monitoring, security ratings and compliance automation into a single system, with AI-driven risk prioritization and recommended remediation steps.

The product assesses risk across an organization's external and internal infrastructure, cloud configurations, applications and third parties. It performs automated, continuous asset discovery and non-intrusive vulnerability assessments, ingests data from existing internal scanners (including Microsoft Defender, Tenable, Rapid7 and Qualys) or uses the agentless FortifyData Collector, and monitors dark and deep web sources for leaked credentials, exposed records and confidential documents. Risk findings are mapped to compliance framework controls for continuous reporting, and the company markets an AI audit capability that analyzes vendor-supplied reports such as SOC 2 against relevant principles and controls. Its scoring approach produces a benchmarked cyber risk rating that incorporates threat and vulnerability data.

The company positions its platform against traditional GRC suites and against security-ratings or attack-surface-only vendors, and supports compliance and regulatory frameworks including PCI, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, 23 NYCRR 500, GLBA and HITRUST.

Business model

FortifyData sells access to its cyber risk management software platform to enterprise and mid-market organizations, with go-to-market driven by demo requests and direct sales.

Traction

Reported annual growth of 250 percent every year since its 2018 launch, enterprise customers including Global Payments and Nike, and a headcount of 37 as of January 2022 with plans to add 20 employees over the following 18 months.

Latest developments

The company markets an AI-powered platform including AI-driven risk prioritization, agentic vendor management workflows and an AI audit dashboard that analyzes vendor-supplied SOC 2 and similar reports, alongside an integrations marketplace for internal vulnerability scanners.

▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history

Market position

Positions itself as a consolidated alternative to standalone security ratings vendors, attack surface management point tools and large, costly traditional GRC implementations, competing on breadth of internal, external, cloud and third-party risk data in one platform.

Differentiators cited by the company include continuous weekly auto-asset discovery, active and passive data collection instead of historical OSINT, proprietary dark web intelligence, combined internal and external infrastructure assessment, cloud configuration monitoring, and a patented configurable scoring model that customers can weight themselves.

Technology

The platform performs continuous, active and passive assessments rather than relying solely on historical OSINT data, with weekly auto-asset discovery to reduce asset misattribution. It runs non-intrusive infrastructure vulnerability scans of internal and external networks, monitors cloud misconfigurations, and integrates hourly-updated threat intelligence feeds that adjust threat likelihood and risk prioritization. A patented configurable scoring model lets clients weight cybersecurity risk categories to reflect asset classification, threat scenario likelihood and business impact. Integrations allow third-party scanner data to be ingested and orchestrated from within FortifyData, and proprietary dark/deep web intelligence feeds detect compromised credentials and leaked data.

Go-to-market

Direct sales supported by demo requests, platform overview videos, peer reviews and gated content such as whitepapers and compliance guides; post-seed capital was directed toward expanding sales and marketing headcount.

Cybersecurity, IT risk and compliance teams at enterprises and organizations of all sizes; reported customers have included Global Payments and Nike, and materials address sectors such as financial services, education (GLBA) and healthcare (HITRUST).

Geography

Headquartered in Kennesaw, Georgia, United States, serving clients internationally.

History

The company launched in 2018 and by January 2022 employed 37 people, having reported annual growth of 250 percent each year since launch and raised a $5 million seed extension round led by Tech Square Ventures, bringing total reported funding at that time to $6.7 million.
