TEL AVIV, Israel–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#SSPMAdaptive Shield, a leader in SaaS security, today announced a new investment from Blackstone Innovations Investments, Blackstone’s strategic investment arm, bringing its total capital raised to $44M.

We believe in Adaptive Shieldโ€™s mission and are excited to support the company with our investment as they enter their next stage of growth.โ€

With Adaptive Shield, organizations can prevent, detect, and respond to identity-centric SaaS threats through Misconfiguration Management, SaaS-to-SaaS Access and Discovery, Identity & Access Governance, Device-to-SaaS User Risk Management, and Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR).

“Blackstone’s investment demonstrates its success with our offering and underscores Adaptive Shieldโ€™s innovative capabilities as the only SaaS security platform to integrate with more than 130 applications that covers an expansive SaaS attack surface,โ€ said Maor Bin, co-founder and CEO at Adaptive Shield. โ€œWith Blackstone’s support, we will continue our trajectory for growth and expansion while keeping up with the constantly evolving threats.โ€

“At Blackstone, we have a dedicated team of cybersecurity professionals advising hundreds of our portfolio companies to further strengthen the cyber defense across the entire Blackstone ecosystem,โ€ says Adam Mattina, Deputy Chief Security Officer and Head of Portfolio Cybersecurity at Blackstone. โ€œWe view the SaaS ecosystem as one of the top emerging attack vectors today, and our usage and investment in Adaptive Shield is highly strategic for the broader Blackstone portfolio as we collectively strive to stay ahead of such threats.โ€
