【谷歌翻译 未经校对】网络安全公司Praetorian最近宣布,它从包括Bill Wood Ventures和McKinsey&Company在内的投资者那里筹集了1000万美元的A轮融资。在投资方面,Praetorian和麦肯锡建立了战略合作伙伴关系,以帮助客户解决复杂的网络安全挑战并确保创新。麦肯锡之所以选择Praetorian进行投资是因为其客户至上的文化,强大的品牌声誉,组织成熟度和技术人才密度。
“Having achieved profitability and cash flow positive operations through eight years of bootstrapping, we had no intention of ever raising outside capital. We had to reexamine that thinking after being introduced to partners that brought value far beyond a capital injection and that were completely aligned with our vision, mission, and values,” said Praetorian Founder and CEO Nathan Sportsman. “Investors that are not constrained by the mechanics of a traditional fund give Praetorian the flexibility to take a long-term view that aligns client and shareholder interests and that nurtures the experimentation cycles of innovation. Bill Wood and McKinsey share our conviction that there are no shortcuts to building an enduring institution with the client at the center.”
“通过八年的引导,实现了盈利和现金流正向运营,我们无意筹集外部资金。在被介绍给合作伙伴之后,我们不得不重新考虑这种想法,这些合作伙伴带来的价值远远超出了注资,并且完全符合我们的愿景,使命和价值观。” Praetorian创始人兼首席执行官Nathan Sportsman说。 “不受传统基金机制约束的投资者可以使Praetorian灵活地采取长期观点,以使客户和股东的利益保持一致,并培育创新的实验周期。比尔·伍德(Bill Wood)和麦肯锡(McKinsey)共同相信,以客户为中心建立持久的机构并没有捷径。”
With its expertise and engineering, Praetorian helps leading organizations solve complex cybersecurity problems across their critical enterprise assets and product portfolios.
凭借其专业知识和工程技术,Praetorian帮助领先的组织解决其关键企业资产和产品组合中的复杂网络安全问题。
“The cybersecurity industry is one that will never stop growing and one that presents a new window of opportunity almost every day,” added Bill Wood, general partner at Bill Wood Ventures. “Praetorian has been selected by the largest companies in the world to help them solve complex security challenges.”
Bill Wood Ventures的普通合伙人Bill Wood补充说:“网络安全行业永远不会停止增长,并且几乎每天都会提供新的机会之窗。” “ Praetorian已被世界上最大的公司选中,以帮助他们解决复杂的安全挑战。”
Kevin Buehler, Senior Partner and global leader of McKinsey’s cybersecurity practice, pointed out that the investment and collaboration complements and extends the consulting firm’s existing cybersecurity capabilities.
麦肯锡网络安全业务高级合伙人兼全球负责人Kevin Buehler指出,这项投资和合作是对咨询公司现有网络安全能力的补充和扩展。
“We have been deeply impressed with Praetorian’s distinctive capabilities in security architecture and engineering and feel confident that our shared values will allow us to help clients put security at the center of their business strategy. We are delighted to partner with such a world-class team,” explained Buehler.
“我们对Praetorian在安全体系结构和工程方面的独特能力印象深刻,并深信我们的共同价值观将使我们能够帮助客户将安全性置于其业务战略的中心。我们很高兴与这样一支世界一流的团队合作。”
