Malwarebytes hiring after investment boost

Malwarebytes is hiring again after receiving a $100 million investment that the security vendor plans to use to massively expand its MSP partnership programme.

For those who came in late, the company laid off 125 employees just a month ago so the fact it is hiring again is probably due to Vector Capital making the minority $100 million investment to promote Malwarebytes’ product innovation and consolidate its ownership structure.

But the investment firm also said the funding will be used to scaleĀ  Malwarebytes’ international channel partner program and its rapidly growing MSP business.

And that could lead to a doubling of Malwarebytes’ internal MSP channel team to 150 employees within a year, from its current 75 members.
