Kusari, a Ridgefield-based software supply chain security start-up, announced it raised $8 million through combined investments in pre-seed and seed round funding.
The seed round was led by J2 Ventures and co-led by Glasswing Ventures with participation from Unusual Ventures, which previously invested $2 million in pre-seed funding.
Kusari was established in June 2022 to address the lack of transparency within the software supply chain and development lifecycle, which can lead to costly security vulnerabilities. The company plans to use the funding to further develop its software supply chain security solutions.
“Identifying where vulnerabilities lie in your software supply chain is complex and time-consuming. With the ever-increasing number of vulnerable packages discovered each year, organizations need a single source of truth about their code,” said Tim Miller, co-founder and CEO of Kusari. “Kusari will be that source of end-to-end transparency and will bring about insights for users to drive more secure outcomes for their organizations. Our focus is on helping users solve their very real security problems.”
