Existing investors Adara Venture Partners and Neotec both contributed to the round, bringing the startup’s total funding to over $12m. As part of the series B round, Trident managing director Alberto Yepez and Trident principal Michael Biggee will be joining the startup’s board of directors. The team said that it will be using its new infusion of capital to expand its sales and marketing initiatives, as well as its research and development, to meet the growing demand for unified security management.
