Company Overview
About Feroot Security
Feroot Security is a Vancouver, British Columbia-based client-side cybersecurity company providing compliance and security monitoring for B2B websites — detecting malicious third-party JavaScript, preventing form jacking (credential theft at the browser level), and achieving compliance with PCI DSS 4.0.1 client-side security requirements, CCPA, HIPAA, and 50+ data privacy regulations. Founded and backed by Y Combinator (W21) with $27.5 million raised including a $14 million Series A in November 2025 led by True Ventures with Industry Ventures and Preface, Feroot achieved $5 million in revenue in November 2024 and reported 300% year-over-year revenue growth in Q3 2025 while doubling its team.
Business Model & Competitive Advantage
Feroot's platform addresses a growing attack surface that traditional security tools miss: third-party JavaScript loaded by websites (analytics, chat widgets, ad tags, consent management scripts) runs in the visitor's browser with direct access to form data, credentials, and payment card numbers — without server-side visibility. PCI DSS 4.0.1 (requirements effective March 2025) created a hard compliance mandate: every payment page must implement client-side security controls to detect and alert on unauthorized script behavior. Feroot's agent monitors all JavaScript execution in real-time, inventories third-party scripts, detects behavioral anomalies indicating Magecart-style skimmer compromise, and generates the compliance documentation that payment and healthcare sites need for audits.
Competitive Landscape 2025–2026
In 2025, Feroot competes in the client-side security and web compliance market with PerimeterX (HUMAN Security), Reflectiz, Source Defense, and traditional WAF vendors (Cloudflare, Akamai) for JavaScript security and PCI DSS 4.0.1 compliance. The March 2025 PCI DSS 4.0.1 deadline created a compliance-driven procurement wave for client-side monitoring — every e-commerce operator processing card payments needs a qualifying solution. The 300% Q3 2025 growth reflects this deadline driving enterprise buying urgency. The 2025 strategy focuses on financial services and healthcare verticals with active compliance requirements, building automated remediation beyond passive monitoring, and expanding the regulation coverage to include EU AI Act website obligations.
