Serverless Security Platform Secures $2 Million in Seed Funding

Protego, developer of a comprehensive serverless security solution, acquired $2 million in seed funding from a team of investors led by Ron Gula of Gula Tech Adventures, Glilot Capital Partners, and former RSA chief technical officer Tim Belcher.

Protego works by continuously scanning serverless infrastructure— including functions, logs, and databases—to increase the application’s security posture and minimize the attack surface. Using machine-based analysis and deep learning algorithms, Protego strives to build a model of normal function behavior to detect threats, anomalies, and malicious attacks. It is also designed to identify and prevents attacks in real time, and to provide the “minimum effective dose” of protection in the right place.
