Atlanta-based SecurEnds, a cloud-native Identity Governance company, has announced that it has closed a $21 million Series A led exclusively by Elephant.
“We’ve built the industry’s first fully-cloud-native and configurable Identity Governance platform, empowering organizations to secure identities, protect against data breaches, and meet security and compliance needs,” said Tippu Gagguturu, co-founder and CEO of SecurEnds. “The platform’s ease-of-use allows organizations to rapidly build identity-driven cyber risk and compliance programs. We’re thankful to Elephant for embracing our vision of democratizing Identity and Cloud Governance and look forward to working together as we continue to scale.”
Over the next 12-months, SecurEnds intends to nearly triple its workforce, filling more than 125 sales, marketing, and product engineering roles both in the US and worldwide. As part of the transaction, Jeremiah Daly and Christopher De Souza, Partners at Elephant, will join the Board of Directors.
“SecurEnds’ rapid growth over the past two years has been particularly impressive when considering the many challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and the highly competitive cybersecurity landscape,” said Daly. “Both Chris and I believe Identity Governance is becoming more critical to businesses around the world and needs disruption. SecurEnds provides that disruption by delivering an innovative and elegant cloud-native solution that customers love. We are excited for a long and fruitful partnership that helps SecurEnds execute on their vision for the future of Identity Governance.”
