By Amit Chowdhry ● May 30, 2024

SOCRadar (see Pulse 2.0 profile), a provider of enterprise-grade and end-to-end threat intelligence and brand protection, announced the successful completion of its Series B funding round at $25.2 million. This funding round was led by PeakSpan Capital and Oxx also participated.

External cybersecurity has rapidly grown since the pandemic, fueled by high demand for digital transformation, cloud migrations, and increased remote work.

SOCRadar is focused on delivering preemptive defense against cyber threats like ransomware, phishing, BEC, and all externally sourced attacks, and, most importantly, on detecting and preventing attacks before they happen.

SOCRadar’s go-to-market strategy focuses on product-led growth and sales, successfully reaching and engaging customers globally. And the company has reached 25,000+ freemium customers from 150+ countries worldwide and boasts 600+ active paid customers alongside 350+ channel partners. This adoption is a testament to the shared problem faced by all companies worldwide and the effectiveness of SOCRadar’s solution in addressing external cybersecurity needs.

SOCRadar’s flagship product – which is an Extended Threat Intelligence (XTI) cloud-based SaaS platform – offers an end-to-end suite of external cybersecurity solutions, including Cyber Threat Intelligence, External Attack Surface Management, Brand Protection, Dark Web Monitoring, and Supply Chain Threat Intelligence. And SOCRadar’s platform is cost-effective, natively unified, and easy to use, empowering organizations to proactively defend against all primary external breach vectors.

The funding raised for the Series B round will be used to drive the company’s expansion in the US market, invest in the EU market for strengthening the company’s strong presence in the region, continue to penetrate the Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) markets, and invest in research and development. And SOCRadar will continue to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) across all aspects of its platform to enhance threat detection, response, and automated remediation capabilities.

With this latest funding round, SOCRadar is prepared to strengthen its position further as a trusted partner for organizations seeking to defend against external cyber threats and safeguard their digital assets.
