Kolide Raises $17M in Series B Funding
Summary
The round, which brought total funding raised to date to $27m, was led by OpenView Partners, with participation from Matrix Partners, who previously led the Series A. Led by Jason Meller, CEO & Founder, Kolide provides a SaaS based endpoint security platform which enlists the help of employees directly to fix serious issues it detects on Linux, Mac, and Windows devices. All communication happens over a Slack app that messages end-users when their device no longer meets the security standards set by the company. The messages include customized instructions and even a way for end-users to immediately verify they correctly fixed the problem. Since its original launch, Kolide has been operating with a lean team to scale their product to 250+ customers.
