1Password is a prime example of an app that has had a singular focus for over a decade – make passwords easier to manage. In recent years, the company has expanded rapidly into the enterprise market as organizations need ways to securely store, manage, and share access to corporate logins. Today, 1Password is now valued at $6.8 billion after a Series C funding round of $620 million.

The Series C funding round is led by ICONIQ Growth, with new investments from others including Tiger Global and Lightspeed Venture Partners. This funding round is the largest raised by a Canadian company and reinforces 1Password’s continued enterprise expansion. Accel, who led the company’s Series A and B, is also participating in the funding round. 1Password will use this additional funding to develop and scale enterprise security solutions for companies of all sizes with a focus on helping companies and end-users protect sensitive data and information across all of their devices.

Taking part in the Series C round from the media entertainment world include Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Matthew McConaughey, Chris Evans, Rita Wilson, Ashton Kutcher, Trevor Noah, Justin Timberlake, and Pharrell Williams. From the world of business, 1Password’s round includes investments from:

“In conversations with more than one -hundred CISOs, CIOs, CTOs, developers, and IT leaders, we were impressed by their overwhelmingly fierce passion for 1Password’s ability to balance strict security standards with a profound understanding of how humans behave. By making safe online behavior second nature, 1Password is not only protecting individuals but also the enterprises where they work,” said Will Griffith, a founding partner at ICONIQ Growth, who will join 1Password’s board as part of this investment.
