Senseon

Senseon is a cybersecurity firm that provides a unified platform consolidating Network Detection and Response (NDR), Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), and other security tools. Founded in 2017 by David Atkinson, a former UK Special Forces cyber operative, the company was created to address the inefficiencies of using multiple, separate security products. Atkinson's background includes over 15 years in UK specialist military and government units, followed by a role as Commercial Director at Darktrace, experiences which informed his perspective on the flaws in conventional cyber defense approaches.

The company's core technology is its 'AI Triangulation', which emulates the reasoning of a human analyst by correlating data from endpoints, networks, and other sources to detect threats and automate investigation and response. This system is designed to significantly reduce false positive alerts by up to 90%, thereby addressing analyst alert fatigue and increasing the efficiency of security teams. The platform offers a Universal Sensor for data collection across an organization's infrastructure, including cloud environments like AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Senseon operates on a Software as a Service (SaaS) model, serving a range of clients from small businesses to large enterprises, including notable names like Boohoo and Gymshark. The business model aims to reduce security costs for clients by replacing multiple point solutions with its single, integrated platform and by offering a managed security operations center (SOC) service. The company has secured significant funding, including a $6.4 million seed round in 2019 and a $20 million Series A round in 2021, led by investors such as Eight Roads Ventures, MMC Ventures, and Crane Venture Partners.
