Kolide Raises $17M Series B To Enable IT Teams To Secure Devices With The Help Of Employees

OpenView joined other participating investors such as Matrix Partners, who previously led the Series A. Kolide is betting big on a user-focused approach to endpoint security. This combination of high quality cross-platform visibility and end-user involvement enables Kolide to fix issues that cannot be resolved with traditional endpoint security and management software. On one hand, IT and Security teams feel they need more visibility and greater control over devices out of their physical reach," says Jason Meller, CEO & Founder at Kolide. Its why Kolide uses an open source endpoint agent and why weve invested hundreds of hours creating the best possible experience for end-users to see exactly what data from devices is being collected and who in the company can see it. The free guide offers unique approaches to solve novel ethical and privacy challenges associated with endpoint monitoring, and simultaneously rails against an enterprise security industry which increasingly views users as threats instead of allies.
