Claroty has secured $100 million in strategic growth financing. Participants include lead equity investor Delta-v Capital, as well as AB Private Credit Investors at AllianceBernstein, Standard Investments, Toshiba Digital Solutions, SE Ventures, Rockwell Automation, and Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First Citizens Bank. Combined with Claroty’s existing $635 million in funding to date, this new financing further establishes the company’s leadership position in the critical infrastructure cybersecurity market.
The company says the funds will be used to scale Claroty’s platform approach to cyber-physical systems (CPS) protection across key verticals including the public sector and heavily regulated critical infrastructure industries, expand in emerging regions across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific, fuel research and development for core and adjacent technologies including secure remote access, and double down on new and existing strategic partnerships.
“The past year has brought unprecedented geopolitical, macroeconomic, and regulatory changes that have created new trends and challenges for those charged with protecting the world’s critical infrastructure,” said Yaniv Vardi, CEO of Claroty. “With our deep domain expertise, unmatched technological capabilities in our comprehensive platform, and extensive partner ecosystem, Claroty is uniquely equipped to help CPS defenders navigate these changes. This new investment reinforces our leadership position in the CPS security market and propels us forward on our journey to ensure the cyber and physical worlds can safely connect to drive progress, improve productivity, and support our lives.”
“The lines between the digital and physical worlds are blurring, which means that cyber attacks and incidents are having more physical, real-world impacts such as power outages, fuel shortages, and disruptions to medical care,” said Dan Williams, Partner at Delta-v Capital. “Claroty has demonstrated a unique ability to address critical infrastructure organisations’ most pressing security needs, and we believe its platform approach to CPS protection is strongly aligned with where the market is headed for years to come. We are excited to join such an important mission and look forward to supporting Claroty’s continued growth and success.”
“As our world becomes more digitally connected, cybersecurity becomes an increasingly urgent priority, especially when critical infrastructure is involved,” said Lewis Leavitt, Director at AB Private Credit Investors. “Claroty has proven that its talented leadership team, advanced technology, and go-to-market strategy comprise the key ingredients for long-term growth, and we are delighted to come aboard at such an exciting time in the company’s journey,” continued Alex Barry, Managing Director at AB Private Credit Investors.
“The New York Corporate Banking team is excited to support Claroty with this new strategic growth financing,” said Sameer Paul, Director of Silicon Valley Bank. “We have witnessed the company’s impressive success and strong growth while providing critical needs for the cybersecurity market. The Claroty team shows true professionalism and are the type of strong operators SVB loves to support. We look forward to partnering with the company as they continue to grow and scale.”
