Feroot

The firm's business is centered on addressing the growing threats that target the user's browser, an area often overlooked by traditional server-side security. Modern websites heavily rely on third-party JavaScript for functionalities like analytics, advertising, and customer support, which creates vulnerabilities for attacks like Magecart, digital skimming, and formjacking. These attacks involve injecting malicious code into websites to steal sensitive user data, such as credit card details and personal information, directly from the user's browser. Feroot's platform is designed to give organizations visibility into this client-side attack surface by monitoring and controlling all JavaScript-based services and scripts running on their web applications.

Feroot generates revenue through a subscription-based model for its platform, which includes several products like Inspector, PageGuard, and the Feroot AI Platform. These tools provide automated scanning, real-time monitoring, and proactive defense to detect and block unauthorized script activities and data exfiltration. The platform helps businesses in sectors like e-commerce, financial services, and healthcare protect customer data, maintain brand trust, and comply with various data privacy regulations such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR. The company has successfully raised a total of $13.5 million in seed funding, with an $11 million round led by True Ventures in February 2022 to accelerate product development and market expansion.
