The Company's patented platform integrates easily within existing security infrastructure to deliver targeted coaching that teaches employees how to identify and remediate cyberattacks while providing security teams with insights that help them better understand the human element of their organization's security posture.

SecurityAdvisor's deep integrations with leading cybersecurity vendors, including CrowdStrike, provide visibility across the entire organization for security teams and quantifies security teams' ROI. SecurityAdvisor will use the capital to support product development and drive market awareness of its innovative offering amongst enterprise security leaders.

"SecurityAdvisor's ability to deliver personalized coaching to build awareness and change user behavior is a disruptive shift from the traditional security training model. Rather than executing basic compliance-based security training, security leaders can use SecurityAdvisor to implement continuous education processes that flag risky behaviors in real-time to prevent data breaches."

"Dynamic and timely security awareness education for employees is a primary piece of a comprehensive security strategy for any organization looking to protect their data and assets in an increasingly complex cyber threat environment," said Andy Horwitz, vice president of CrowdStrike Store and Technology Alliances.

"With the SecurityAdvisor app in the CrowdStrike Store, customers can implement their next-gen security awareness training platform in minutes utilizing their existing investment in the Falcon platform."

"We plan to fundamentally disrupt the cybersecurity awareness training market through a fundamental belief that people need personalized coaching to avoid falling victim to sophisticated cyberattacks. This round of funding will help SecurityAdvisor to strategically grow the company, enabling us to continue to help more enterprises manage their top security risk."
