Press Release

Activate Security Reaches 2 Million Users, Prevents $18M in Identity Theft

October 1, 2025 • San Francisco, CA

Activate Security today announced it has surpassed 2 million active users worldwide, with independent analysis showing the platform has prevented an estimated $18 million in identity theft and cybercrime losses since launch.

The company's Dark Web Monitoring feature has alerted users to over 340,000 credential exposures, enabling them to change passwords before criminals could exploit stolen information. Safe Browsing has blocked 4.2 million phishing attempts, and the antivirus system has quarantined 890,000 malware infections.

"We've proven that enterprise-grade security can be accessible and affordable for everyone. Protecting 2 million users from cyber threats validates our mission, but we're just getting started. Our goal is to make comprehensive security protection as common as antivirus."

- Michael Chen, Founder & CEO

Product Launch

New AI-Powered Threat Detection Blocks Zero-Day Attacks

September 15, 2025 • San Francisco, CA

Activate Security launched advanced AI-powered malware detection that identifies threats based on behavior patterns rather than signatures alone. Early testing shows the technology catches 97% of zero-day threats compared to 34% for traditional signature-based systems.

The new system analyzes program behavior in real-time, identifying suspicious activities like unexpected file encryption, unauthorized network connections, or attempts to access protected system areas. This allows protection against malware variants that have never been seen before.
