PreVeil Announces Series C Funding Round Led by PSG
Investment to support PreVeil’s expansion into new markets
Boston, MA – PreVeil, a provider of cloud based end-to-end encrypted email and file collaboration solutions, announced today that it has raised a $20M Series C funding round led by PSG, a leading growth equity firm partnering with software and technology-enabled services companies to help accelerate their growth.
PreVeil empowers companies to protect emails and files to securely communicate both within the organization as well as with contractors, vendors and third parties. Unlike traditional security systems, PreVeil takes a Zero Trust approach to data security and assumes that servers, passwords, and IT administrators will be inevitably compromised. All messages and documents sent through PreVeil are encrypted end-to-end, ensuring only intended recipients — and no one else, not even PreVeil — can access the data. PreVeil offers compliance, supply chain, business data, work from home and industry-specific solutions. It is seamlessly integrated into existing enterprise systems like Microsoft’s O365 and Google’s GSuite for ease of use and deployment.
PreVeil serves enterprises requiring both advanced data security and compliance in a simple and cost-effective solution. Its customers include Aerospace and Defense companies and Universities that need to protect sensitive data such as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) to comply with the US Department of Defense’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), the NIST 800-171 standard, and International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) regulations. PreVeil’s cost-effective and user-friendly solution ensures organizations, regardless of their size, can quickly operate within these standards and meet the Federal Government’s new Zero Trust mandates. PreVeil will use the funding to fuel its efforts to increase its customer base in additional sectors, including professional services, financial services and healthcare. It will also make its military-grade “FIPS” encryption, cloud storage, sharing and messaging capabilities available to third party application developers via open Application Programming Interfaces (API).
“Organizations today are facing a more threatening and volatile cyber threat landscape than ever before, coupled with a growing array of regulatory requirements. We built PreVeil to provide a new approach to information security that is tailored to navigate today’s complex environment,” said Randy Battat, Founder, President, & CEO of PreVeil. “We look forward to partnering with PSG to accelerate our expansion as we continue to help our customers modernize their approach to information security and remain compliant with the most stringent cybersecurity regulations.”
“PreVeil is widely trusted by over 600 organizations and over 30,000 users operating in the federal government ecosystem, and we believe its solutions are highly applicable across industries, presenting a significant runway for growth,” said Rick Essex, Managing Director at PSG. “We’re excited to work closely with PreVeil to help them capture the opportunities that lie ahead.”
