Talon Cyber Security, a browser-based cybersecurity solutions provider, announced earlier this week that it has closed its latest funding round at $43 million thanks to an investment from SAFE Investments for $17 million.
Sorenson Ventures and Evolution Equity Partners are joining earlier Talon’s investors, venture capital firms Lightspeed and Team8, and cybersecurity leaders such as George Kurtz, CEO of CrowdStrike, Yevgeny Dibrov and Nadir Izrael, Co-founders of Armis, Michael Shaulov, co-founder and CEO of Fireblocks, Avi Shua, co-founder and CEO of Orca Security and Assaf Rappaport, co-founder and CEO of Wiz.
The funding will be directed towards cybersecurity investor outreach to back and expedite Talon’s commercialization and expand development efforts to support rising demand from the market, according to the company.
Founded in 2021, Talon Cyber Security’s primary mission is to combat ransomware and insider threats—two of the most significant cybersecurity issues leaders in the industry face. As such, the company pioneered the first secure browser for corporate enterprises called TalonWork back in October. This enabled enterprise companies “to effectively manage a hybrid workforce without having to compromise security, employee experience, or privacy.”
TalonWork’s successful integration across dozens of companies, including some of the largest employers in the U.S, the company has grown significantly, adding 45 staff employees and establishing new offices in the US.
Talon’s technology “simplifies enterprise-grade security, which we hear consistently from customers,” said Ken Elefant, Partner at Sorenson Ventures. Elefant added that the company is a “true game-changer” compared to other companies because of its time to value combined with the depth of solution.”
