DENVER, CO – February 9, 2021 – Deepwatch, a leading provider of intelligence-driven managed security services, today announced another strong year of growth including significant customer, product, partner and team expansion in 2020.

As one of the fastest growing cloud companies, Deepwatch’s growth places us among leading Cloud companies like Shopify, Coupa, HashiCorp and Twilio.”
