Material Security: Funding, Investors & Team (Aug 2026)

Material Security is an email security company that develops data-driven security software to protect an organization's users and data. Material Security started Material after the 2016 hacks changed history and showed everyone everywhere the importance and fragility of our private data. Material Security thinks it takes at least as much creativity to protect a technology as it does to invent it. We know that usable security means making people safe and productive. The company believes in common sense and not silver bullets, snake oil, or “next-generation” technobabble. Our goal is resilience, and we build security that works (and works simply). Material Security partnered closely with the world’s best organizations to protect their employees and the ordinary people that depend on them. We work incredibly hard because keeping people safe and helping them collaborate is the best job in the world.

About FundedIQ's Material Security Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Material Security is left off this page rather than filled in.
