OPSWAT Establishes International Briefing Centre in London to Tackle Escalating Cybersecurity Threats
New office and interactive cybersecurity lab build on strong UK growth and align technology innovation with Europe’s financial and regulatory hub
LONDON: OPSWAT has announced the opening of its international briefing centre and state-of-the-art cybersecurity lab in London, marking a significant expansion of its UK presence. The investment underscores OPSWAT’s commitment to protecting finance, defence, and operational technology in manufacturing and energy to strengthen the UK’s economic and national security.
As Europe’s financial capital, London is both a centre for cybersecurity innovation and a focal point for collaboration with regulators, policymakers, and industry leaders. Customers trust OPSWAT’s unified platform of advanced technologies and its OPSWAT Academy training programmes to achieve stronger cyber resilience.
OPSWAT’s portfolio addresses escalating cyber threats with solutions such as content disarm and reconstruction (CDR), multi-AV scanning, adaptive sandboxing, data diodes, and secure managed file transfer. These capabilities are increasingly vital as legacy systems remain vulnerable, files cross online and air-gapped organisational perimeters and security boundaries, and AI-driven attacks grow more sophisticated.
Key Highlights:
- UK headcount grew from five to 35 employees in the past year, with plans to add 65 more by end of 2026.
- UK bookings rose 76% from 2023 to 2024 and are expected to grow at the same rate in 2025.
- OPSWAT serves more than 2,000 customers worldwide across multiple sectors, operating 20 offices globally.
- The London office will also serve as a hub to train and certify the next generation of critical national infrastructure (CNI) cybersecurity professionals through OPSWAT Academy.
The opening ceremony featured a ribbon cutting by OPSWAT executives, demonstrations in the cybersecurity lab, and participation from leaders in technology, government, and industry.
