Zenedge, a San Jose, CA-based security platform provider, raised $3.5m in Series A funding.
Backers included Yehuda Neuberger, Fred Sorkin and Needham & Company Chairman Andrew Malik.
The company intends to use the funds to move out of stealth mode and expand its reach to a broader client base.
Co-founded by CEO Yuri Frayman and CTO Leon Kuperman, Zenedge provides a subscription-based globally distributed, attack-ready, enterprise-grade security platform that delivers granular control without touching a customer’s existing web application infrastructure.
Its flagship product, Zenshield, can be deployed in multiple modes:
– Security-Shield Mode isolates the web application and protects from all attacks, operating as a security shield between the Origin and CDN;
– Security-Shield + CDN Mode isolates the origin and protects from all attacks, operating as a security shield and CDN; and
– Security-Shield Standby Mode deploys Zenshield as a fallback system to switch to, in the event of an attack, taking over the traffic to manage the attack and mitigate the risk.
