PALO ALTO, Calif., May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Mimic, the ransomware defense company, announced today that it has emerged from stealth and that it has secured a seed round of funding of $27 million led by Ballistic Ventures, with investment from Menlo Ventures, Team8, Wing Venture Capital and Shield Capital.
"Mimic's SaaS platform provides enterprises with detection, deflection, and rapid recovery from ransomware attacks," said Derek Smith, Mimic CEO. "Our technology detects ransomware much earlier and with greater accuracy than other defenses, allowing us time to deflect the attack before damage is done or data is stolen. Mimic is the last line of defense, working in concert with our customers' other controls. Our mission is to eradicate this pernicious form of cyber extortion, which impacts parts of our society that are least able to cope, such as hospitals and schools."
