Led by CEO Vishal Gupta, the company serves 400 customers across insurance, financial services, legal, telecom and manufacturing in 29 countries. Seclore is based in the US and India and was described as Santa Clara–based in coverage of the fundraise. The company intends to use the proceeds to continue to expand operations.

Its core offerings target security, privacy and compliance for cloud computing, BYOD and external collaboration use cases. Customers deploy Seclore on-premise or via hosted pay-as-you-go services, with pricing largely based on number of users. The company started commercial operations in 2010 and has acquired more than three million users across over 300 enterprises, with presence in more than 15 countries. Seclore is already profitable and cash-flow positive for more than two years, and its revenues have grown almost fourfold in the last couple of years.
