Blue Lava Raises $25M in Series A Funding

Blue Lava, creator of the first security program management platform built by and for chief information security officers (CISOs), today announced that it has completed a total of $25M in series A funding, with the latest $7.5M investment on top of $17.5M raised previously. The latest financing round, led by Crosslink Capital with contribution from existing majority investors Rally Ventures and ClearSky Security, allows Blue Lava to pave the way as an innovator in security program management.

Founded in 2018 and led by CEO David Walter, Blue Lava’s solutions are designed to help CISO’s measure, optimize, and communicate the business value of their cybersecurity program to the board and C-suite executives. The Blue Lava software platform combines on-demand maturity assessments, peer benchmarking and security strategy and roadmap planning to win budget approval for security investments and monitor progress towards a more mature security organization.
