The need for continuous monitoring and incident response, enhanced regulatory requirements, and the issues associated with maintaining certifications and managing logs have driven demand for security operations. The SIEM market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.8 percent over the next several years, going from $3.94 billion in 2020 to $6.44 billion in 2027, Valuates Reports found.
Six companies on our list got major funding rounds, including: Arctic Wolf, which got $150 million on a $4.3 billion valuation; Axonius, which got $100 million on a $1 billion valuation; BitSight, which got $250 million on a $2.4 billion valuation; Devo, which raised $250 million on a $1.5 billion valuation; Exabeam, which raised $200 million on a $2.4 billion valuation; and SecurityScorecard, which raised $180 million.
Two companies in the security operations, risk and threat intelligence space are going public, with KnowBe4 raising $152 million in April initial public offering that valued the security awareness training vendor at $2.6 billion. And threat intelligence vendor ZeroFox plans to go public in the first half of 2022 at a $1.4 billion valuation by merging with special purpose acquisition company L&F Acquisition Corp.
