CloudSEK, a Bengaluru, India‑based predictive cyber‑threat‑intelligence firm specializing in AI‑powered attack detection, secured a strategic investment from Connecticut Innovations (CI), the strategic venture‑capital arm of the State of Connecticut, as part of its $10 million Series B2 round.

This B2 tranche included a mix of primary and secondary capital.

The company, which had previously raised $19 million in its Series B1 round, intends to use the funds to accelerate its expansion in the United States, with plans to establish a regional hub for operations, talent, and partnerships in Connecticut.

Founded in 2015 by Rahul Sasi, co‑founder and CEO, CloudSEK has evolved from a research‑first initiative into one of the world’s most trusted cyber‑threat‑intelligence platforms, serving more than 300 enterprises across the BFSI, healthcare, technology, and government sectors.

CloudSEK is preparing to onboard strategic local talent and build deep collaborations with corporate partners, universities, and research ecosystems across the state.

CloudSEK’s Series B1 was led by Commvault, with participation from MassMutual Ventures, Inflexor Ventures, Prana Ventures, and Tenacity Ventures. Early investors—including Meeran Family (Eastern Group), StartupXSeed, Neon Fund, and Exfinity Ventures—continued to support the company.
