Securonix Acquires Threat Intelligence Firm ThreatQuotient

Cybersecurity heavyweight Securonix acquires ThreatQuotient to boost plans to build an all-in-one security operations stack.

Cybersecurity heavyweight Securonix on Wednesday announced a deal to acquire ThreatQuotient to boost plans to build an all-in-one security operations stack.

Financial terms of the transaction were not released.

ThreatQuotient, a late-stage Virginia start-up behind the ThreatQ threat-intelligence platform, raised $90 million across eight rounds since it was founded in 2013.

“This combination will create a comprehensive, modular, and fully integrated AI-driven platform for threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR), leveraging advanced analytics and insights across both internal and external threats,” Securonix said in a statement.

ThreatQuotient’s technology enables security teams to pull dozens of commercial, open-source and industry feeds into one place, enrich the data with local telemetry and push the resulting intelligence back out to firewalls and EDR to incident-response ticketing systems. 

Securonix is betting that the external context From ThreatQuotient is a natural fit alongside its technologies that analyze internal signals that enterprises already collect in their SIEM and user-behaviour analytics pipelines.

Securonix spent the past few years leaning hard into automation and LLM techniques. Backed by a billion-dollar growth round in 2022, the company rolled out “agentic” GenAI modules promising to triage alerts and draft response playbooks with minimal human input.  

Early benchmarks cited by the companies promise up to a 70 percent cut in mean time to respond and as much as a 90 percent drop in false positives.

Securonix said ThreatQuotient will continue to be sold as a standalone option for customers that want a dedicated TIP, but the plan is to fold its data models and APIs into Securonix’s EON platform.
