History[edit]
DivvyCloud was founded in May 2013 by former Electronic Arts employees Brian Johnson and Chris DeRamus.[2] During their tenure at Electronic Arts, they were responsible for the large-scale infrastructure of MMORPG titles.[3] After writing proprietary tools to manage the complex environment, they left Electronic Arts and created DivvyCloud.[2]
In May 2019, DivvyCloud secured $19 million in a funding round led by Providence Strategic Growth, an arm of Providence Equity Partners,[4] with contributions from existing investors MissionOG and RTP Ventures. This investment brought its total capital raised to date to $29 million, following a $6 million series A round in September 2017.[5]
The company has won numerous awards, including Cyber Defense Magazine Editor's Choice Winner of the 2019 InfoSec Awards in the Cloud Security category [6] and the 2019 Cyber Security Excellence Awards.[7]
With over 970% growth from 2016 to 2019, DivvyCloud was recognized by Inc Magazine as being one of the 500 fastest-growing companies in America.[8]
In April 2020, Rapid7 acquired DivvyCloud for $145 million.[9]
