SentinelOne is a venture-backed startup located in Mountain View, California that develops software to secure endpoint devices against targeted attacks and provides forensics to understand the nature of such attacks. The company’s technology uses predictive execution inspection to detect and protect devices against targeted Zero-day attacks in real time.
History
SentinelOne was founded in 2013 by cybersecurity veterans from Intel, McAfee, Checkpoint and IBM and is financed with venture funding. The company has raised $14.5M in two rounds of venture funding that occurred in 2013 and 2014. The rounds raised $2.5M and $12M from venture capital firms including Accel Partners, Data Collective, Granite Hill Capital Partners, Tiger Global Management, UpWest Labs, and the Westly Group. [1] [2] [3] In October 2015, SentinelOne raised an additional $25M in a series B funding round, bringing the company's total funding to close to $40M.
SentinelOne’s endpoint protection technology has been spurred by a number of industry trends including more sophisticated malware threats targeting endpoint devices and the inadequacy of static, signature-based anti-malware approaches to protecting endpoint devices. The company claims to have a number of customer wins with a malware detection rate of over 90% for zero-day threats.[4]
SentinelOne was named one of “The 10 Coolest Security Startups Of 2014” by CRN. [5] The company was also recognized as a 'Visionary' in the 2016 and 2017 Gartner Magic Quadrants for Endpoint Protection Platforms[6][7] and has received recommended ratings from NSS Labs.[8]
On Apr 24, 2017 SentinelOne announced Bob Parker as CFO of the company.[9]
Certifications
SentinelOne's Endpoint Protection and Critical Server Protection platforms are certified by AV-TEST as Antivirus replacements.
SentinelOne's products are also fully HIPAA and PCI DSS 3.1 certified.
Technology
SentinelOne’s focus is securing endpoint devices against new threats. The company uses predictive execution inspection to monitor endpoints to detect unknown threats along with real-time forensics to deliver investigative capabilities equivalent to “sandboxing” during attacks. The technology is designed to fully automate remediation and remove discovered threats. [10] [11]
Products
SentinelOne has two main product offerings:
The SentinelOne Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) protects Windows, OS X, and Linux-based endpoint devices against advanced malware, exploits and live/insider attacks. It monitors all activity on the endpoint via an autonomous lightweight agent, leverages dynamic behavior-based threat detection, offers fully integrated, automated mitigation and remediation capabilities, and generates real-time forensics.
The SentinelOne Critical Server Protection Platform (CSPP) deploys across physical, virtual, and cloud-based servers running Windows or Linux. It offers comprehensive protection against advanced threats, enabling organizations to stay compliant and secure without compromising server performance.
Ransomware Warranty
SentinelOne offers its users 'Money Back' Ransomware Warranty which is only valid for Windows-based user endpoints and servers.[12]
Funding
On January 25, 2017 Fortune reported that SentinelOne raised $70 million in new venture capital funding and has raised over $110 million since launch in 2013.[13]
