Riot, a French cybersecurity startup, secured $30 million in Series B funding to expand its employee-focused security platform.
Initially providing cybersecurity education through simulated phishing and a chatbot, Riot now aims to proactively improve employee security posture with a new Employee Security Posture Management (ESPM) platform.
This platform will analyze employee security practices, assign a "karma score," and gently encourage improvements. The company's future plans include international expansion and development of additional security tools, aiming to become a comprehensive employee security provider.
Riot currently serves 1 million employees across 1,500 companies.
