Leading SIEM Vendor Has Tripled Customer Base and Revenue over Past Two years
BOULDER, Colo., March 30, 2011 – LogRhythm, the company that makes log data useful, today announced that it recently closed a $10 million Series C round of financing with private equity firm Adams Street Partners joining the company’s existing investors Access Venture Partners, Colorado Fund I, Croghan Investments and Grotech Ventures. The company, which has tripled its customer base and revenue over the past two years, will use this new funding to accelerate international expansion, expand product development and build out its service and support infrastructure to meet the needs of its rapidly growing customer base.
“SIEM is increasingly becoming the centralized monitoring infrastructure that serves as the nervous system for security, compliance and operations management,” said Andy Grolnick, CEO of LogRhythm. “LogRhythm’s SIEM solution provides deep visibility across distributed IT environments and allows companies to pinpoint problems that can lead to data breaches, audit violations and downtime. With our new pattern recognition technology we have just scratched the surface in terms of what this platform can do.”
“We look for rising star companies with game-changing technology and seasoned management teams that are in high growth markets, criteria that LogRhythm meets in spades,” said Dave Welsh, Partner at Adams Street Partners. “We believe the company is positioned for long term leadership in the increasingly strategic SIEM market segment, and look forward to helping LogRhythm reach its potential.”
