Threat intelligence company Cybersixgill today announced that it has closed a $35 million Series B investment round that brings the total raised by the company to $56 million.

The funding round was led by More Provident and Pension Funds and REV Venture Partners, with additional participation from CrowdStrike, Elron Ventures, OurCrowd, and SonaeIM.

Founded in 2014, the Tel Aviv-based company provides organizations with real-time and actionable threat intelligence, to help them proactively detect and protect against threats such as data leaks, malware, phishing, and vulnerability exploitation.

The company’s solutions can automatically harvest and extract threat intelligence from messaging solutions, social media, and the internet, to offer the context organizations need to implement preemptive protections.

Over the past three years, Cybersixgill has doubled its global footprint, and is now serving hundreds of entities in APAC, EMEA, and North America – including enterprises and financial and government institutions.

The company plans to use the Series B investment to build on customer momentum, to expand its global footprint, and grow marketing and sales teams.
