The company, which last year raised $5 million in a Series A round, says it will use the new funding to expand — this includes geographical expansion and a boost in sale efforts — and further develop its human risk management platform.

In addition to its training platform, Living Security has developed a gamified team training product, and also provides learning modules.

Living Security says its platform is used by more than 100 enterprises, including MasterCard, HP, Target, Verizon, Walmart, T-Mobile, Sony, Northrop Grumman and JP Morgan.
