Security Startup ShiftLeft Closes $9.3 Million

ShiftLeft announced the completion of $9.3 million in Series A financing. Bain Capital Ventures and Mayfield Fund participated in the funding.

ShiftLeft is developing a new model for protecting software. The company limits the attack surface proactively by understanding the Security DNA of each new version of any application or micro-service to strengthen it. This helps businesses increase the speed at which issues resulting from non-conformance with security DNA of their apps can be identified and automatically triaged for further investigation.

The company launched from stealth concurrently with the funding announcement.
