Cyber firm ThreatLocker to double staff and enhance product after $100M VC deal (by Alex Soderstrom)

A local cybersecurity company expects to hire more than 100 people and expand its reach after raising $100 million.

ThreatLocker Inc. raised the money in a Series C fundraising round led by New York-based private equity firm General Atlantic Service Co. LP, co-founder and CEO Danny Jenkins told Orlando Inno. As a result, the Maitland-based firm will add employees, expand its Central Florida office footprint and enhance its product so it’s accessible to more businesses, Jenkins said.

Founded in 2017, the company provides server and endpoint security for 23,000 clients. The company has grown quickly since 2019, when it employed about six people. Between 2019 and the Series C round, ThreatLocker raised at least $24.4 million and grew its headcount to 140 employees.
