Patrowl's blog - Patrowl Raises €11m in Series A: Continuous Protection of Internet Exposed Assets

Patrowl, leader of offensive security-as-a-service, is proud to announce it has raised €11M in a Series A funding round with participation of Crédit Mutuel Innovation, SWEN Capital Partners, BPIfrance and the historical investor Auriga Cyber Ventures. These funds will allow Patrowl to intensify its conquest of the European market and R&D. As the period is difficult for tech companies, the cybersecurity sector is still growing. Moreover, Patrowl was able to prove the viability of its economic model and show an innovative solution compared with traditional ones.

Our mission : “We protect your business while you drink coffee”

The Patrowl concept came to light when a penetration test was made on an e-commerce website which got hacked not long after, due to a newly-added functionality after the test. The proof was here : traditional security processes are no longer adapted to the elevated rhythm of evolution of online assets.

Continuously identify, qualify and correct all your online exposed assets

Rare, limited to one-time discovery, pentests are ineffective over time. A few months later, the combination of continuous monitoring and large-scale automation resulted in the Patrowl SaaS solution. Since 2021, Patrowl vowed to help companies and communities to secure everything they expose online thanks to continuous automated pentesting. When 50% of hacking comes from online exposed assets, the need for visibility on these assets and to regain control of risks have become priorities. Pentesting is a fundamental tool to ensure the security of companies but its traditional use is limited in time and often very costly.

Furthermore, most tools present on the market need a consequent investment in time and manpower. To remedy to theses cons, Patrowl developed a SaaS tool for automated pentests to ensure a continuous protections of online exposed assets. Easy to use and turnkey, this SaaS solution identifies the external exposition surface of companies, ensures the continuous protection of exposed assets and frees teams from time-consuming tasks thanks to its simplicity and rationalization.
