CounterTack today announced it was recognized by CB insights, a research and advisory firm, in a list of emerging technology companies backed by U.S. government defense- and security-focused investment firms.
As noted by CB Insights, U.S. military and intelligence-affiliated research outfits have played a major role in the recent resurgence of technology and innovation fueling growth in the United States.
CB insights profiled 12 early- to mid-stage tech startups that are backed by investment firms that are US government-affiliated and security-oriented.
CounterTack was recognized for its backing by Arsenal Venture Partners, manager of the Army Venture Capital Initiative which invests in businesses for the benefit of the U.S. Army.
“CounterTack is helping organizations solve some of the most difficult challenges in the face of an evolving set of threat vectors in the Federal government and in the Enterprise,” said Jason Rottenberg, Managing Director, Arsenal Venture Partners.
“We invested in CounterTack knowing they bring an innovative approach to endpoint security in an extremely competitive market.”
“While CounterTack continues to bolster its Federal and Commercial market presence, it’s important to highlight our connection to military-linked venture funds,” said Neal Creighton, CEO, CounterTack.
“Not only do we understand the government’s threat environment and protection needs, but we are partnered with a unique network of experienced military officers and civilians within the Department of Defense.”
