Based in Leeds, the new office is just a stone’s throw away from Yorkshire-based Brigantia, which has now become Heimdal’s new master distributor for the UK and Ireland.

Established in 2014, the provider also aims to grow UK revenue by 500% by the end of 2021, with the aim of becoming one of the country’s biggest cyber security vendors and a market leader in its field.

A Danish cybersecurity company has opened an office in Leeds and signed a new long-term distribution agreement as part of ambitious UK expansion plans.
Heimdal Security’s new office is its second in the UK and close to Ripon-based Brigantia, its master distributor in the UK and Ireland.
Heimdal, which currently employs six in Leeds and 24 in London, expects to more than treble staff at both sites in the year ahead – outstripping the size of its teams in Copenhagen and Romania.
It also aims to grow UK revenue by 500% by the end of 2021.
Heimdal, which aims to disrupt the market for endpoint protection, has had a skeleton team in the UK since 2016 but has been growing rapidly since it was acquired by Marlin Equity Partners in March last year.
