Kiteworks, formerly known as Accellion, Inc., is an American technology company that secures sensitive content communications over channels such as email, file share, file transfer, managed file transfer, web forms, and application programming interfaces. It was founded in 1999 in Singapore and is now based in San Mateo, California. The Kiteworks Private Data Network consolidates file and email data communications onto a single platform, enabling organizations to reduce data privacy exposure risk and demonstrate conformance with a variety of data privacy regulations. The company was founded as Accellion in Singapore in 1999 and was originally focused on distributed file storage. It moved to Palo Alto, California and shifted its focus on secure file transmission. Accellion reached a total funding of about $35 million in 2011, and it was valued at $500 million in 2014. The company's chief executive officer, Yorgen Edholm, credited aversion to "National Security Agency—style snooping" as a factor in their success. Accellion raised $12.2 million, in January 2012, from Riverwood Capital, to continue their expansion. The company began focusing on security and compliance in 2016, and released features that included data security, governance, and compliance. They also began integrations with major cybersecurity independent software vendors (ISVs).
