What do a roaring Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 and enterprise-grade cybersecurity have in common? According to Kyle Hanslovan, Founder and CEO of Huntress, “Whether chasing hackers or shaving seconds off lap times, you need precision, quick decisions, and the right team to succeed.” That philosophy is about to hit top speed as Huntress partners with Forte Racing at the Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25–26, 2025.
This legendary 24-hour endurance race, held at the iconic Daytona International Speedway, is a proving ground for motorsport's elite—from Formula 1 champions to NASCAR legends. But this year, the race takes on a new dimension: a Lamborghini, adorned with Huntress’ bold branding, will blur the lines between high-performance racing and cutting-edge cybersecurity.
Huntress and Forte Racing are united by their shared values of performance, innovation, and resilience. Just as Huntress works tirelessly to outpace hackers, Forte Racing pushes the limits of speed and endurance on the track. The partnership isn’t just symbolic; it’s a statement about empowering all businesses—big or small—to leave cyber threats in the dust.
“You don’t need a Formula 1 budget to outpace hackers. Our mission is to democratize cybersecurity, making it accessible for small businesses everywhere. This partnership with Forte Racing allows us to showcase that mindset on one of the most competitive stages in motorsport.”Kyle Hanslovan, Founder and CEO of Huntress
