Local Security Software Developer RealDefense Earns Major Growth Recognition on Deloitte Technology Fast 500 List

RealDefense, a Pasadena-based software development company specializing in security and privacy solutions, has secured a position on Deloitte’s prestigious Technology Fast 500 ranking for 2024.

The company demonstrated remarkable financial performance with a 267 percent revenue growth, according to a RealDefense statement.

Gary Guseinov, Chief Executive Officer of RealDefense, and Sean Whiteley, President, attributed the substantial growth to several key factors including acquisition synergies, organic expansion, and their scalable partner platform.

“Together, these factors have enabled us to scale efficiently, meet rising market demand, and deliver strong financial performance,” Guseinov said in the statement.

Christie Simons, partner at Deloitte & Touche LLP and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications within Deloitte’s Audit & Assurance practice, emphasized the program’s milestone.

“Innovation, transformation and disruption of the status quo are at the forefront for this year’s Technology Fast 500 list,” Simons said.

RealDefense, known for products like iolo System Mechanic and SUPERAntiSpyware, serves over three million customers with its comprehensive privacy and security software portfolio.

The company’s product lineup includes STOPzilla, MyCleanID, MyCleanPC, ioloVPN, GetMyDrivers, WarrantyStar, and Support.com, while partnering with leading consumer brands in cybersecurity and PC manufacturing sectors.

The Deloitte Technology Fast 500 recognition requires companies to maintain proprietary technology generating significant operating revenue, with minimum thresholds of $50,000 in base year.

To qualify, companies must achieve at least $5 million in current-year operating revenues and demonstrate a four-year operational history while maintaining North American headquarters.
