BERKELEY, Calif. and TEL AVIV, Israel, April 13, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Otterize, an open-source solution that's re-inventing how to connect services securely, to each other and to their infrastructures, today announced $11.5M in seed funding and publicly unveiled its new Otterize Cloud product, which is now in GA. The round was led by Index Ventures, followed by Dig Ventures, Vine Ventures, with participation by Jibe Ventures, Crew Capital, and Operator Partners. Notable angel investors include: Abhinav Asthana, CEO of Postman; Adrian Ludwig, Chief Trust Officer at Atlassian; Akhil Paul, Investor at Caparo Group; Caleb Sima, former CSO at Robinhood; Dion Almaer, VP Engineering at Shopify; Guy Podjarny, Co-Founder of Snyk; Greg Schott, former CEO of MuleSoft; Ken Fox, Founder of Stripes; Mahau Ma, former SVP Corporate Strategy at MuleSoft; Michael Shaulov, CEO of Fireblocks; Nadir Izrael, CTO of Armis; Nat Friedman, former CEO of GitHub; Peter McKay, CEO of Snyk; Sanjay Poonen, former COO of VMware; Tamar Yehoshua, former CPO of Slack; Yevgeny Dibrov, CEO of Armis; Yvonne Wassenaar, former CEO of Puppet; and several additional technology leaders. Such support validates Otterize's unique intent-based access control (IBAC) paradigm that enables developers to securely connect their services to each other and to infrastructure by automatically configuring existing security controls based on what client developers declare they need.

Key Points: 
  • Otterize alleviates such issues, adding visibility and insights from the free Otterize Cloud service to the Otterize OSS project for Kubernetes.
  • With IBAC, developers get secure access to services by simply declaring, alongside their code, what calls the code intends to make.
  • The product makes it trivial for them to gain secure access to whatever they need to do their job.
  • If secure access is that easy, then the default will become secure access – and that's the ultimate outcome Otterize seeks for the industry.
