That infrastructure can be identified, tracked, blocked and mitigated before it is used at scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Infrawatch is built around this, combining large-scale intelligence collection with real-time classification to help organisations move from reactive monitoring to pre-emptive defence in the form of a single intelligence layer that replaces fragmented solutions and noisy feeds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pre-seed round was co-led by Outward VC and Triple Point Ventures, with participation from Portfolio Ventures and fintech and cyber angel investors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new funding will support Infrawatch\u2019s next stage of growth, including the expansion of its engineering and research teams, accelerated platform development ahead of general launch later this year, early enterprise customer deployments, and the company\u2019s expansion into the US.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI know from first-hand experience how broken infrastructure intelligence is today: fragmented data, noisy feeds and taped-together workflows where \u2018real-time\u2019 detection often means static daily updates in practice,\u201d says Lloyd Davies, founder and CEO of Infrawatch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEnterprises cannot keep up by patching together narrow intelligence feeds while the internet changes beneath them. That is why we built Infrawatch from the ground up: to turn one of the most underutilised aspects of cybersecurity into a practical defence layer that empowers defenders to act earlier and stop threats before they reach their customers, users or systems.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uktech.news\/cybersecurity\/infrawatch-raises-2-2m-to-build-new-category-of-cybersecurity-platform-20260520\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Infrawatch raises \u00a32.2m to build new category of cybersecurity platform https:\/\/www.uktech.news\/cybersecurity\/infrawatch-raises-2-2m-to-build-new-category-of-cybersecurity-platform-20260520 Publish Date: 2026-05-20 07:00:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":250238,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.uktech.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/infrawatch_lloyd_davies-1.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[25,57],"class_list":["post-250236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-phishing","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250236"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=250236"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250236\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":250240,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250236\/revisions\/250240"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/250238"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=250236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=250236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=250236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
