Tessian Raises $65M in Series C Funding
Summary
Tessian, a London, UK and San Francisco, CA-based human layer security company, raised $65m in Series C funding. The company intends to use the funds to continue to expand beyond email to secure other interfaces like messaging, web and collaboration platforms, and triple its employee base, with a particular focus on growing its sales team in North America. Led by Tim Sadler, CEO, Tessian uses machine learning to stop data breaches and security threats caused by human error – without disrupting employee workflow. Tessian uses the models to automatically detect security threats and prevents them from turning into breaches by notifying the employee of the risk in-the-moment. The company now has approximately 350 global customers across the legal, financial services, healthcare and technology sectors including Affirm, Investec and RealPage.
