Truffle Security Raises $25 Million for Secret Scanning Engine

The investment will fuel the development of Truffle’s enterprise-grade secrets detection, verification, and remediation platform.

Secrets scanning provider Truffle Security today announced raising $25 million in a Series B funding round that brings the total raised by the company to over $40 million.

The investment round was led by Intel Capital and a16z, with additional support from Abstract, Lytical Ventures, and several angel investors.

Founded in 2021, San Francisco-based Truffle Security is known for TruffleHog, an open source secret scanning solution that helps organizations identify and address leaked secrets across their entire environment.

The platform searches for API keys, passwords, tokens, and similar secrets and non-human identities (NHIs) that are leaked through chat systems, support tickets, source code repositories, and other means.

TruffleHog was designed to search for these secrets in hidden content, deleted code, and version history from Google Cloud, GitHub, and other tools.

The new funding, Truffle Security says, will be invested in TruffleHog Enterprise, an enterprise-grade secrets detection, verification, and remediation solution, and in the launch of TruffleHog GCP Analyze, an add-on offering visibility into leaked Google Cloud service accounts.

The add-on is meant to reduce remediation time when Google Cloud secrets are exposed, by enabling security teams to quickly assess impact, prioritize and remediate the riskiest secrets, and reduce mean time to response.

Truffle Security will also use the fresh investment to scale its go-to-market and customer success efforts, accelerate innovation, and extend its secret scanning capabilities.
