Optery Now Offered Through GuidePoint Security in Reseller Partnership Expansion New reseller partnership gives GuidePoint Security customers access to Optery for Business to remove the personal data threat actors use to target employees and executives

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Optery, the leading provider of enterprise-grade personal data removal software, today announced a new reseller partnership with GuidePoint Security, the leading cybersecurity solution provider that helps organizations make better decisions that minimize risk. Through the partnership, GuidePoint Security customers can now purchase Optery for Business to find and remove personal information about employees and executives from data broker and people-search sites.

Threat actors use personal and professional details exposed on data broker sites to research and target people inside organizations with both cyber and physical threats. Security teams often have limited visibility into this external exposure. Optery for Business helps reduce that attack surface at scale, helping prevent social engineering, account takeovers, doxxing, and physical targeting.

“Organizations have invested heavily in protecting corporate systems, but attackers often bypass those defenses by targeting the people with access to them,” said Lawrence Gentilello, CEO and founder of Optery. “Making Optery available through GuidePoint Security gives customers a practical way to reduce the exploitable personal and professional data that fuels targeted social engineering and physical threats, helping lower the volume of attacks against their employees and organizations.”

Optery for Business combines patented search technology, advanced matching, monthly rescans, and automated and custom removals across hundreds of data broker and people-search sites. Before-and-after screenshots verify exposure and removal results. A self-service administrative dashboard lets security and IT teams enroll employees, monitor exposure, track removal status, and measure organization-level progress. Enterprise capabilities include SSO, SCIM, APIs, MCP, and webhooks, and Optery is SOC 2 Type II attested.

Independent evaluations have repeatedly validated Optery’s effectiveness and industry leadership.

CNET named Optery Editors’ Choice and the Best Overall Data Removal Service of 2026, ranking it number one among leading data removal services. PCMag has named Optery Editors’ Choice for five consecutive years. In a TechCrunch evaluation, Optery found nearly 50 exposed profiles that had remained after the journalist used a competitor.

Optery is the most awarded personal data removal service in the industry, with major cybersecurity and technology recognition from CNET, PCMag, Cyber Defense Magazine, the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, the Globee® Awards, SiliconANGLE, the Fortress Cybersecurity Awards, Fast Company and Evan Kirstel’s We Love Tech Awards.

"As attackers exploit employees’ personal information to tailor and launch attacks, organizations need to account for employee and executive exposure as part of their overall risk posture," said Mark Thornberry, senior vice president of partnerships at GuidePoint Security. "Reducing that exposure is necessary as part of a layered defense against social engineering, impersonation, and other identity-based threats."

Optery for Business is now available through GuidePoint Security. To learn more, visit optery.com/business.
