Lumu, creators of the Continuous Compromise Assessment cybersecurity model, announced that it has closed its Series A round of funding for the amount of $7.5 million. The round was co-led by SoftBank Group Corp's SB Opportunity Fund and Panoramic Ventures.

Lumu is a cloud-based solution that collects and standardizes metadata from across the network, including DNS queries, Network Flows, access logs from perimeter proxies and/or firewalls, and spam box filters, and then applies Artificial Intelligence to correlate threat intelligence from these disparate data sources to isolate confirmed points of compromise.

Lumu was founded by cybersecurity veteran Ricardo Villadiego, who previously founded Easy Solutions which was acquired by BC Partners and Medina Capital in 2016.
