“More than ever, organizations everywhere are balancing innovation and security, and they need powerful tools that help them realize both,” said Fitz. “Invicti has been in lock-step with its customers, tackling this challenge head-on with the technology they need to secure their web applications with confidence. I’m thrilled to join this team and continue bringing our industry-leading platform to customers around the globe.”

The addition of Fitz comes at a time of record growth and expansion for Invicti. The company recently announced the consolidation of its flagship product Netsparker under the Invicti name and also added Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to its platform to help teams mitigate open-source risks at the speed of innovation.

In 2021, the company achieved net dollar retention (NDR) of 124%, and added nearly 750 new customers to its growing portfolio. After a $625 million capital investment led by Summit Partners, Invicti expects to expand its employee base across all operations by as much as 40% in 2022.
