Anomali develops threat-detection and mitigation products, including ThreatStream, which aggregates free and commercial sources to track known threats, and Anomali, a 2016 product that scans networks to determine in real time if they have been breached and helps mitigate and build defenses. The platform displays a green check when a network is clean and provides guidance when compromises are detected. The company plans to use new funding to expand internationally, specifically targeting Europe, the Middle East and the Asia Pacific. Anomali launched in 2013 and now has around 200 employees and about 300 large-enterprise subscribing customers, including a large percentage of the Fortune 100. Named customers include Alaska Airlines, the Bank of England and Citigroup. CEO Hugh Njemanze said the Series D closed last week. Anomali is a Redwood City, CA-based provider of the ThreatStream threat intelligence and Anomali Enterprise platforms. Its products aggregate and curate massive amounts of threat intelligence data to reduce false-positives, facilitate threat hunting, and provide trusted circles for secure communication between organizations. The company also provides retrospective analysis by continuously reading a year’s worth of an organization’s log data and comparing it to its library of indicators of compromise. Led by CEO Hugh Njemanze, Anomali intends to use proceeds from its recent strategic investment to continue advancing product development. The strategic investment came from In-Q-Tel; the amount was not disclosed. Anomali is backed by General Catalyst Partners, GV, Institutional Venture Partners, Paladin Capital Group and individual investors. Anomali provides a platform for earlier detection and identification of adversaries by correlating tens of millions of threat indicators against real-time network activity logs and up to a year or more of forensic log data. Led by CEO Hugh Njemanze, the company focuses on accelerating threat detection and attribution within customer networks. The company intends to use the funds for international expansion, product development and to bolster its sales and marketing efforts. Anomali was launched in 2013 and, including this round, has raised more than $56 million to date. The company is based in Redwood City, California. ThreatStream provides threat-intelligence and analytics that combine machine learning with human-sourced community data to reduce false positives in security event streams. The company positions its product as a complement to traditional SIM tools by prioritizing real threats so analysts spend less time on noise. ThreatStream emphasizes a symbiotic approach of technology and community sharing—what the CEO calls "the safety of the herd." It currently serves 30 large enterprise customers. The company announced a $22M Series B that brings total funding to $26.3M, giving it additional resources to expand its efforts. Steve Herrod of General Catalyst will join the board as part of the deal. ThreatStream, founded in 2013, builds Optic, a crowd-sourced cybersecurity intelligence platform that aggregates millions of threat indicators from across the internet. Optic integrates threat intelligence directly into an organization’s existing security infrastructure and uses data science to identify potential threats in real time. The platform is intended to help security analysts reduce noise and focus on the more sophisticated, targeted 20% of attacks. The company targets enterprise and government customers and says the new funding will be used to add a new layer of cybersecurity protections. Before this round the company had raised $300,000 in seed funding. ThreatStream positions its product as a realtime layer to augment traditional perimeter defenses.
