Marcin Kleczynski Biography

Marcin Kleczynski is one of the most popular and richest Business Executive who was born on November 1, 1989 in Łódź, Łódź Voivodeship, Poland.

Marcin Kleczynski (born November 1, 1989) is the chief executive officer (CEO) and co-founder of American Internet security company, Malwarebytes. After a period working as a computer repairer and being involved in forums in the mid 2000s, Kleczynski co-founded Malwarebytes with Bruce Harrison in January 2008. By 2014, Malwarebytes had treated over 250 million computers worldwide, with a range of popular products including Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, and more recently, advanced anti-ransomware package Endpoint Security. Kleczynski was named one of Forbes Magazine’s ’30 Under 30′ Rising Stars of Enterprise Technology in 2015.

As a teenager, Kleczynski found a job working as a technician in a computer repair shop in Chicago. It was while working at the repair shop in Chicago that Kleczynski noticed that whenever infected computers arrived, they would generally reformat the computer, regardless if the infection was only minor. It was only when his mother’s computer became infected that Kleczynski learned more about why the virus wasn’t directly attacked, finding that neither McAfee nor Symantec would remove the malware from his system. He later recalled “I’ve never been as angry as when I got my computer infected”, and professed that his mother told him to fix it “under penalty of death”. It was only after Kleczynski posted on the forum SpywareInfo, popular at the time, that he was able to learn how to cure it, which took three days. The company was unofficially founded after this, when Kleczynski conversed and became friends with several of the editors of the forum, who tempted him to buy an unused domain from them. As a result, Malwarebytes was informally established in 2004.
