Push Security, an identity protection firm, announced raising $30 million in Series B funding, bringing its total raised to $49 million. The round was led by Redpoint Ventures with support from Datadog Ventures and existing investors. The company offers a browser-based Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) platform to combat identity attacks such as phishing, session hijacking, and credential stuffing. It also identifies stolen credentials, missing multi-factor authentication controls, and non-SSO identities, helping organizations close security gaps.
Push Security’s platform provides real-time attack detection and response, along with identity attack surface mapping and policy enforcement.
This helps secure the entire identity perimeter and enhance the overall security posture. The company’s open-source repository of SaaS-native attack techniques has been deployed on over 1.5 million endpoints globally. Push Security’s solution allows organizations to effectively combat identity-related threats and strengthen their security frameworks.
With a rapidly growing customer base and employee count, Push Security plans to use the new investment to hire more talent and scale its platform. The funds will also support research and development efforts as well as expansion into new markets. The company aims to continue evolving its product to prevent identity-based attacks on a global scale, especially in light of high-profile breaches, such as the Snowflake incident last year.
Push Security’s CEO, Adam Bateman, highlighted that stolen credentials and phishing remain the top causes of breaches.
The company is dedicated to advancing its platform’s capabilities to protect users from identity attacks more effectively. This funding round marks a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to combat evolving identity threats in an increasingly digital world.
