At LimaCharlie, we believe that for the cybersecurity industry to innovate, people need cost-effective access to security infrastructure. In the same way that the emergence of cloud computing has enabled small teams to access the computing power that was previously only available to large enterprises, access to scalable cybersecurity infrastructure will enable more security professionals to build the future they believe in.
In case you missed the news, LimaCharlie has raised 5.45 million dollars in an oversubscribed seed round led by Susa Ventures, with participation from Xerox Ventures, CoFound Partners, Long Journey Ventures, Sands Capital, StoneMill Ventures, as well as existing investor, Lytical Ventures. The money is going to be used to expand engineering and to build out our go-to-market strategy.
Hello friend, My name is Maxime Lamothe-Brassard and I am the CEO and founder of LimaCharlie.
The months continue to peel off of the calendar and Spring is in the air. As usual, the team at LimaCharlie has been busy pushing the state of cybersecurity forward. In the last month, we have fixed some bugs, brought real-time detections into the web application, and launched a new sensor type. On May 19th at 10.00 AM PST join us as we present a webinar on how to reduce security tooling spend by augmenting Splunk and other high-cost data solutions with LimaCharlie.
The world has changed. The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically increased the number of teams that are working with a remote and distributed model. This change is a welcome acceleration of what many feel would have been the eventual outcome of our digital future. With this new model comes a new and changing set of security challenges.
Can you introduce yourself and tell us what you do and what your company does? I'm Simon Eklund and I work for Cparta Cyber Defense as the lead for DFIR. DFIR is quite self-explanatory, but the company itself is quite new. The focus for the company is Swedish infrastructure and IP(Intellectual Property) and it is quite an interesting company to work with since it's quite different from other start-ups or new companies.
It is the end of the month and the end of the quarter. It has been a big one here at LimaCharlie. We have grown the team and released three new sensor types built on our new open-source adapter, and this is just the beginning. We are also starting something new. For an hour every Friday, we are going to be holding office hours starting at 9.00 AM PT.
