During a press conference held at Conrad Seoul, Logpresso disclosed the funding round and shared its long-term vision and strategic roadmap.
Founded in 2013, Logpresso is a recognized leader in the cloud SIEM space, delivering Security Operations (SecOps) platform technology across cybersecurity, IT operations, and fraud detection (FDS) across diverse industries. Based on success in domestic and international markets, Logpresso launched its SaaS-based Logpresso Cloud in 2023, earning strong credibility among enterprise and start-up customers.
The Series B round attracted both existing investors—including KB Investment—and new institutional investors. The funding reflects continued confidence in Logpresso’s technical leadership and global growth potential.
“Logpresso stands out as one of the most advanced players in the shift toward AI-based security operations. Its security platform is purpose-built for the cloud era, and we are confident that this investment will help the company drive AI innovation and quickly prove its competitiveness in global markets.” said Junseok Lee, Director at KB Investment.
The new capital will be strategically directed toward:
- Transitioning to an AI-based next-generation security agent model
- Expanding globally through its SaaS offerings
- Driving XDR development via M&A and strategic alliances
“This funding enables us to fully embrace an AI agent–centric security model where artificial intelligence is integrated across all stages of security operations,” said Bongyeol Yang, CEO of Logpresso.
He added, “We will consolidate our battle-tested products into a unified XDR platform, and redesign it around AI to automate the entire process from threat hunting to incident response—maximizing detection performance and operational efficiency.”
Building on a strong domestic customer base, Logpresso will actively accelerate global market entry, starting with expanded partnerships in Japan. The company is already demonstrating technology leadership in the cloud SIEM market.
“Japan’s SIEM market is valued at approximately KRW 350 billion and is growing at a CAGR of 22%. We are well-positioned to enter the market rapidly with a globally optimized SaaS product and are preparing accordingly.” said Dong-Eon Goo, Chief Business Officer of Logpresso.
Logpresso will also actively pursue strategic M&A and technical collaborations to broaden its security capabilities and accelerate global business development. The company aims to expand its product portfolio and enhance global competitiveness through these efforts.
