Blackwall raises €45m Series B as BotGuard rebrands

Dawn Capital led the March 2025 round, with returning investor MMC Ventures participating.

Blackwall announced the financing on 13 March 2025 alongside its change of name from BotGuard. The company planned to double its workforce, develop its product range and expand further in the US and Asia-Pacific.

At the announcement, Blackwall said its software served more than 2.3 million websites and applications through over 100 hosting and service partners. That distribution model lets infrastructure providers add security services for smaller customers while addressing malicious traffic within their own networks.
