It has been a year since our last round of funding and I’m pleased to be back to share that we've experienced quite the journey in the last 12-months: growth in team, customers, revenues, and a $50M Series C. We're firing on all cylinders.
Maintaining visibility into infrastructure and operating systems is critical for all organizations today—compliance, security, and your bottom line depend on it.
I’m excited to share that we’ve raised $30M in Series B funding led by Sapphire Ventures. This is a significant milestone for Uptycs. Jai Das from Sapphire Ventures led the round with participation from existing investors Comcast Ventures and ForgePoint Capital. It was an oversubscribed round with no room for additional investors. This serves as a testament to our strong customer relationships, our current success as a venture, and the excitement around the space of SQL-powered security analytics.
Uptycs' threat intelligence team collects over a million indicators every week to provide the latest threat data. All of this data is downloaded from more than 40 publicly available sources which we then put into eight categories including:
As attackers continually evolve their tactics, the arsenal of tools at hand for defenders needs to respond to attacker complexity while still enabling day-to-day business to happen.
When it comes to detecting malware, the arms race between attackers and defenders is certainly nothing new. The once seemingly simple battle between nuisance script kiddie worms and simple anti-virus software evolved over time into a much more complex and layered approach towards stopping powerful weapons against organizations to extort, incur damages, and steal intellectual property. For a long time now, malware-detection technologies have become more sophisticated as malware works harder than ever to gain access to a target machine and then conceal its presence as it runs.
MITRE ATT&CK is a trusted tool in the arsenal of many security teams. When it comes to endpoint security, analysts need to stay proactive to ensure their organization remains resolute in the face of growing threats.
