Secure Code Warrior, a Sydney, Australia-based agile learning platform for developer-driven security leaders, closed $50 million in a Series C funding bringing its total funding to date to over $100 million.
The round was led by Paladin Capital Group, with participation from Existing investors, including Goldman Sachs and ForgePoint Capital.
The new funding will be utilized to accelerate product innovation on the Secure Code Warrior platform and enhance go-to-market efforts.
The company aims to increase its market share and further empower developers and engineering teams to develop the skills necessary to identify vulnerabilities and efficiently fix code using cutting-edge AI technology.
“Enterprises know that there is no one size fits all approach to developer-driven security and seek the ability to offer solutions that are effective across their teams,” said Co-founder and CEO, Pieter Danhieux. “We have focused on our platform to enable agile learning, through multiple learning paths and experiences, including our real-time feedback option with Coding Labs, to create the most comfortable learning environments possible. This reality wouldn’t be possible without the continued trust and confidence of our investors and our employees. I couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Nanhi and Patrick, who will, undoubtedly, provide invaluable contributions in the months ahead.”
As part of the Series C funding round, Nanhi Singh, Chief Customer Officer at Imperva, has been appointed to Secure Code Warrior's board of directors. Additionally, Patrick Collins, former CEO and founder of SaaS firm 5th Finger, has been appointed as chief product and technology officer.
