Comcast Ventures, the corporate venturing subsidiary of mass media company Comcast, has co-led a $10m series A round for US-based cybersecurity analytics software startup Uptycs.
The round, announced as Uptycs emerged from stealth, was co-led by venture capital firm ForgePoint Capital, and followed a previously undisclosed $3m seed round backed by Comcast Ventures, Genacast Ventures and Founder Collective.
Uptycs has developed an endpoint security analytics platform that feeds in a significant amount of system data and uses analytics to assess security issues. It will use the capital for recruitment and product development.
Dave Zilberman, Comcast Ventures’ managing director, said: “Endpoint asset management and security are an increasing and technically challenging pain point for companies, especially across different operating systems and cloud environments.
“Uptycs is solving that problem and we are excited to once again invest in the founding team on this next venture.”
