Email security firm Abnormal Security has raised $250 million in a Series D funding round at a $5.1 billion valuation. 

Email security firm Abnormal Security announced on Tuesday that it has raised $250 million in a Series D funding round at a valuation of $5.1 billion.

The company was valued at $4 billion in 2022 when it raised $210 million in a Series C funding round.

Abnormal has developed what it describes as an AI-native human behavior security platform designed to detect and block attacks targeting email accounts and popular SaaS applications, such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Slack, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, and Zoom.

The capabilities provided by Abnormal include inbound email security, account takeover protection, and security posture management for email, SaaS applications and cloud infrastructure.
