SentinelOne has announced the establishment of S Ventures, a $100 million fund dedicated to investing in the next generation of category-defining security and data firms.
SentinelOne CEO Tomer Weingarten stated in a statement that the company pioneered a data-driven approach to offering autonomous cybersecurity. Their early days were marked by their investors’ support, who recognized the strength and promise of their concept. Today, he is pleased to see SentinelOne invest in future disruptors, contributing to a legacy of innovation. SentinelOne’s technology and engineering experience, go-to-market, and client base are brought to S Ventures portfolio businesses through their focus on cybersecurity and data innovation. They are committed to investing in innovation that solves mission-critical problems for the enterprise — and for the digital society as a whole.
S Ventures will invest across all stages of the startup lifecycle with a focus on security and data companies that bring innovative use cases to the Singularity Marketplace, the company’s open application ecosystem allowing security teams to extend Singularity XDR use cases. New S Ventures investments include:
* Armorblox, a disruptive API-based Email Security platform that leverages machine learning and natural language processing to detect and prevent sophisticated threats.
* Noetic Cyber, the Continuous Cyber Asset Management & Controls Platform that provides teams with unified visibility and actionable insights into the security posture of all assets across their cloud and on-premises systems.
These investments join S Ventures portfolio companies Torq, a no-code security automation platform that accelerates complex threat response workflows, and Laminar, a platform that provides full data observability across the entire public cloud to reduce the attack surface and detect real-time data leaks.
SentinelOne will help drive innovation for portfolio firms by expediting route-to-market and engineering scaling experience, in addition to providing strategic capital. Startups benefit from increased visibility in the Singularity Marketplace and SentinelOne technology ecosystems, as well as collaborative marketing and SentinelOne Partner Network opportunities.
