inforcer raises $50M Series C to scale AI security platform for MSPs

UK-based cybersecurity firm inforcer has secured $50 million in Series C funding to bolster its AI security platform tailored for managed service providers (MSPs). The investment, spearheaded by Insight Partners and backed by Meritech Capital and Dawn Capital, aims to fortify inforcer's offerings for remote business clients. inforcer's platform unifies Microsoft security and AI management, empowering MSPs to oversee Microsoft 365 security, compliance, and AI services across various customers via a single control plane.

This consolidation simplifies deployments and streamlines security and AI service delivery to small and medium-sized enterprises. The company's latest enhancements include Copilot Manager, Shadow AI detection, and Threat Detection & Response (TDR), tools crafted to detect and counter both human and AI-driven cyber threats. These innovations also facilitate the rollout and oversight of AI services.

The escalating threat landscape, exacerbated by AI-enhanced attacks, has rendered SMBs particularly vulnerable. Jamie Daum, inforcer's CEO, expressed optimism, stating that the fresh capital will fuel platform expansion and empower MSPs to safeguard their SMB clientele against sophisticated AI-fueled threats. Inforcer has witnessed a surge in global adoption during the past two years, fueled by MSPs' demand for unified Microsoft security and AI management solutions.
