OPSWAT is expanding rapidly, and Benny Czarny, founder and CEO, expects to hire up to 100 more over the next three years in the Tampa, Florida area.

This is potentially in preparation for an IPO, which Czarny has said is “a couple of years away”.

OPSWAT focuses on secure communications between critical infrastructures, and has more than 1,000 customers spanning Financial Services, Defense, Manufacturing, Energy, Aerospace, and Transportation Systems across 70 countries. It has around 400 employees in total in 10 global offices.
