The risk assessment platform has earned the support of angel investors with deep industry expertise in the cybersecurity and reseller sectors.

LONDON, ENGLAND, UK, September 17, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- AppSec Phoenix has announced its initial capital campaign results. The campaign investment cycle ended in March 2020 and netted the cybersecurity platform just over $300,200 USD in funds 241% over the initial target ensuring a year worth of runway. Several angel investors across the cybersecurity and reseller sector championed the platform with generous donations to help the team build the capital necessary to scale up its efforts and launch its platform out to more partners.

The smart application security platform launched to the world as a minimal viable product (MVP) concept and has since grown into a fully commercialised operation. Launching as an MVP gave the AppSec Phoenix team valuable insight from a core group of early adopters who helped shape the platform into a viable product that meets the real needs of today's companies looking for all-in-one smart cybersecurity platforms. To date, the platform has onboarded six corporate clients and boasts over 50 users.

AppSec Phoenix's software helps its partners enhance their security monitoring and vulnerability resolution capabilities through a robust yet intuitive dashboard that quickly identifies risks. Once these risks are identified, users can apply appropriate fixes to avoid cybersecurity breaches. The cloud-based ecosystem pairs with many of today's top cloud-based scanners and cloud environments, including AWS, Azure, GCP, and AliCloud to ensure organisations remain in full security compliance.

The platform has garnered much attention in the cybersecurity and reseller world because of its innovative approach to risk and cloud security and the notable industry names affiliated with the firm.

- Andrew Peterson, Co-founder and former CEO of Signal Science (now Fastly)
