($25M in Series A Funding)

ProjectDiscovery, a cybersecurity company led by Co-Founder and CEO Rishiraj Sharma, raised $25 million in Series A funding round on August 17.

The funding will support the launch of the ProjectDiscovery Cloud Platform, a fully-managed SaaS solution designed for enterprises.

The Series A round was headed by CRV and included participation from Point72, SignalFire, Rain Capital, Mango Capital, Accel, Lightspeed, Guillermo Rauch, Caleb Sima, and Talha Tariq, among others.

Why we like it: ProjectDiscovery leverages its incredible open-source community to offer a unique approach to cybersecurity. With over 60k GitHub stars and 100k weekly downloads, the company’s core scanning engine, Nuclei, conducts over 50 million scans each month across 100 countries. This community-driven innovation, coupled with enterprise-grade features, positions ProjectDiscovery.io as a transformative player in the cybersecurity landscape.
