Qalendra Wants To Ensure You Never Book A Bad Trip Again
[screen-shot-2015-12-16-at-5-15-25-am.png?w=738]
It seems like every time you check the headlines a new company is
getting its data stolen.
For the past 12 years Digital Guardian has been striving to
help companies classify and protect data on their systems so that they
can avoid being the next ones in the news.
Today the company is getting some more capital to help grow its
cybersecurity products. Digital Guardian just completed a $66 million
raise. The company has raised north of $135 million to date.
According to Digital Guardian CEO Ken Levine, the company’s
technologies revolve around a “desktop agent that monitors all of your
data and system events, inspects the contents, clarifies the data and
then forms policies around where the data can go.”
The Massachusetts-based cybersecurity firm currently has 265 employees,
with offices in the U.S., UK and Japan. With this new capital, the
company is looking to continue to expand the scope of their products
and tightly integrate existing tech as they look to effectively serve
the company’s 450 distinct clients.
This past September, Digital Guardian acquired Code Green Networks, a
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) network. Levine confirmed to TechCrunch that
the Sunnyvale, California company was acquired for roughly $18 million.
In the wake of the purchase, Levine and the rest of the team at Digital
Guardian have been working hard to begin integrating the network-level
DLP into their products, which have largely focused on endpoint data
protection, as the company looks to further extend their services into
addressing cyber threats.
In what appears to be a trend among several cybersecurity companies at
this point in time, Levine says that he is beginning to look more
closely at what would make Digital Guardian a successful IPO candidate
in 2016.
A laundry list of investment partners participated in the round,
including, GE Pension Trust, Fairhaven Capital Partners, Loring Wolcott
& Coolidge, Special Situation Funds, Brookline Venture Partners, LLR
Partners, Mass Mutual Ventures LLC, MassMutual and the Venture Capital
Unit of Siemens Financial Services.
“Like most companies, our lifeblood at Siemens is our intellectual
property and it must be safeguarded,” said CEO Ralf Schnell, Venture
Capital Unit of Siemens Financial Services, in a release. “We closely
evaluated Digital Guardian’s product capabilities, strategic roadmap,
and corporate vision and were very encouraged with our results.”
Also of note is that David Stienes, a partner at LLR Partners, will be
joining the company’s Board of Directors.
