Exploit and vulnerability intelligence provider VulnCheck on Tuesday announced that it has raised $12 million in a Series A funding round.
The investment, which brings the total raised by the company to nearly $20 million, was led by Ten Eleven Ventures, with participation from Sorenson Capital and In-Q-Tel.
The newly raised money will be used by VulnCheck to improve its platform, accelerate growth and fuel its international expansion.
VulnCheck has developed a platform that provides exploit and vulnerability intelligence, initial access intelligence, and IP intelligence.
The platform collects data from 500 channels and 400 million records to provide organizations with useful intelligence that can be integrated into their existing security products and workflows, for tracking, prioritizing and remediating vulnerabilities.
VulnCheck claims its platform and other resources are used by nearly 7,000 organizations worldwide.
The company recently published a report showing that 768 vulnerabilities were reported as exploited in the wild for the first time last year, up 20% from 2023.
