Security analysts turn to Uptycs for performing intrusion detection, vulnerability management, incident investigation, workload protection, security audits and compliance checks on their server endpoints (Linux VMs, containers) in data centers and cloud providers like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, and for their productivity endpoints such as macOS and Windows. Increasingly, site reliability engineers, incident response teams and IT professionals are also using the Uptycs platform to monitor and observe endpoints, servers and cloud workloads. Uptycs has been built to scale horizontally, and there is no other product or service in the market that is better at managing a large fleet of Osquery agents, which in turn makes it indispensable for large enterprises that are running 1000s of agents on their servers, cloud workloads and endpoints.

Modern endpoints and cloud providers are difficult to observe and secure without real-time analysis of their streaming telemetry, said Uptycs CEO and Founder Ganesh Pai. Traditional endpoint and SIEM vendors are simply not able to scale and unlock instant insights. By modelling the domain of endpoint and cloud security using relational database techniques and real-time pipeline processing, weve created an innovative SQL-powered security analytics platform for visibility and accelerated time to insight. It is very gratifying to hear a users aha-moment when they realize the possibilities of the Uptycs platform are only limited by ones imagination.

Were excited to lead the Series B financing round for Uptycs, and believe that Ganesh Pai and his team have started on a journey to become a company of consequence, saidJai Das, Managing Director and President at Sapphire Ventures. Uptycs is one of the first to apply SQL-powered innovation to security analytics, democratizing security analytics and enabling anyone with SQL knowledge to become a security analyst. This helps solve a critical cybersecurity need for enterprises, which is the lack of security analysts needed for security operations centers.
