Threat Stack offers a SaaS intrusion detection platform that covers cloud, hybrid-cloud, multi-cloud, containerized, and on-premise infrastructure. Its product combines continuous security monitoring and risk assessment to identify intrusions, insider threats, and data loss in real time. The platform is positioned for security and operations teams to deploy security at speed and scale amid automated development processes and talent shortages. As of July the company reported 235% year‑over‑year revenue growth and 84% employee headcount expansion. Threat Stack plans to grow headcount another 30% by the end of 2017 and nearly double its downtown Boston headquarters. The company is focused on continued investment and innovation while expanding its footprint in North America and around the globe. Threat Stack offers the Threat Stack Cloud Security Platform, a cloud-native, fully integrated continuous monitoring solution that provides instant visibility and automatic response across cloud environments and containers. The platform aggregates security data across cloud providers and environments to reduce fragmentation, lower total cost of ownership, and speed time to resolution. Its customers include firms in healthcare, fintech and SaaS, and the company reported a record year of customer growth in 2015. The company plans to use new funding to double headcount over the next year, bolstering sales, marketing and engineering to enhance product capabilities and user experience. Threat Stack also intends to support expansion into a new Boston headquarters in the coming months. Total investment in the company now exceeds $26 million following the latest round. Threat Stack provides continuous security monitoring purpose-built for public, private, and hybrid cloud infrastructures, using a lightweight host agent to enable fast deployment, auto-scaling, and flexibility in elastic environments. Its service helps customers detect malicious activity and protect servers and the data they access from intrusions and data loss. After an over-subscribed beta, Threat Stack launched publicly at AWS re:Invent and offers a 14-day free trial. The company says the newly secured funding will be used to further develop and commercialize its cloud security monitoring service and expand its footprint with Amazon Web Services customers. Threat Stack emphasizes addressing the visibility gap in cloud environments where traditional, network-based controls cannot be deployed. The company is headquartered in Cambridge, MA.
