India-based Scrut Automation has announced raising $7.5 million in a new funding round that will help the company improve its governance, risk and compliance (GRC) automation platform and expand its presence in the United States.
The latest funding round, which brings the total raised by Scrut Automation to more than $10 million, was led by MassMutual Ventures, with participation from Lightspeed and Endiya Partners.
The company says its risk observability and compliance automation platform is designed to simplify information security monitoring for small and mid-sized cloud-native enterprises.
Scrut Automation’s GRC platform enables organizations to discover cyber assets, set up information security programs and controls, continuously monitor their controls for compliance, and manage compliance audits.
The platform provides real-time risk monitoring capabilities in order to help organizations ensure SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, CCPA and ISO 27001 compliance.
