EdgeWave is a San Diego-based cybersecurity company led by Mike Walls that provides enterprise security solutions validated by several thousand customers. Its flagship product, EdgeWave EPIC (Enhanced Precision and Integrated Cyber Capabilities), thwarts advanced cyber threats and enforces security policy compliance through a combination of artificial and human intelligence and Military-Grade cyber operations. The company also maintains teams that provide 24/7 monitoring, threat detection and analysis from multiple operation centers. Financially, EdgeWave closed an additional $2M in Series A equity funding, bringing its total 2014 equity funding to $8M. The company intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations. EdgeWave sells information security software and services, pairing its software with a human element of trained IT security professionals. The company shifted from content monitoring and management toward broader IT security after acquiring Red Condor in 2010. Its cyber-threat detection initiatives are led by retired U.S. Navy Capt. Mike Walls, who oversees threat detection and management for the company’s SMB clients and a handful of large enterprises. EdgeWave was originally financed through a special purpose acquisition company called Sandhill IT. The company is based in San Diego and counts customers such as Esurance, Susquehanna Health, and the U.S. Tennis Association’s U.S. Open among its clients. It intends to use the latest financing to boost sales and marketing efforts.
