“Munich Re Ventures is proud to lead this Series A and support Abstract Security’s journey to reshape security operations,” said Blake Pennington, Principal at Munich Re Ventures. “Abstract’s innovative platform is not just keeping pace with the evolving security landscape; it is setting a high standard in security data fabric and analytics, driving SIEM capabilities far beyond what traditional solutions offer. Colby and his team have built an exceptional organization, equipped with the industry expertise necessary to serve customers with a solution that’s unmatched in the market.”
Today, the majority of security data collected is not actionable or relevant for security teams, and with cyber adversaries averaging just 62 minutes to breach an organization, speed and accuracy in threat detection and response are critical. Abstract’s platform delivers analytics that quickly correlates data and delivers actionable insights at the business level, ensuring security teams can focus on what matters most.
“We are doubling down on our investment with Abstract Security with our Series A commitment,” said Matt Bigge, partner at Crosslink Capital. “As an investor since inception, we saw the focus on execution over the past two years, and the team has proven that execution is a strength so we’re excited to continue supporting the team moving forward.”
“Since Abstract’s inception, we have been laser-focused on linking security analytics to real business value,” said Colby DeRodeff, CEO and co-founder of Abstract Security. “Our rapid customer growth is a testament to our ability to help organizations reimagine their security operations, integrating complex legacy tools and modern solutions to drive real outcomes. This new round of funding will help us continue to execute on that vision.”
The Series A funding follows closely on the heels of Abstract Security’s successful seed round of $8.5 million, announced in March of this year. With this new infusion of capital, Abstract is poised to continue its growth trajectory and expand its impact on the cybersecurity industry.
