About Us:
We didn’t start out as a traditional security product. In the beginning, Glasswall was one of only two file sanitisation filters in the US Intelligence Community’s highly classified networks. We are rated #1 by the National Security Agency. We designed Glasswall CDR to protect businesses against the most advanced file-based threats. Today, we’re trusted by commercial and government organisations around the world.

Inclusion:
At Glasswall we believe that diversity of people and thought are central to our purpose. We are committed to making Glasswall a company that is attractive to people of many different backgrounds. This includes diversity in every sense of the word: those with different backgrounds, ages, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, ways of thinking and those with disabilities or neurodivergent conditions.

We therefore welcome and encourage applications from everyone, including those from groups that are under-represented in our workforce.
One of our corporate objectives is to ensure that the organisational health of the firm is highly rated by our employees.
