CIBC Innovation Banking completed a growth capital facility for Fredericton-based Beauceron Security, a cybersecurity SaaS platform that helps businesses of all sizes manage and monitor for cyber risks.
Beauceron Security plans to leverage the growth capital facility to continue building new features and products to further assist businesses in reducing their vulnerability to human-centric cyber risks.
Beauceron Security’s platform helps companies educate their employees on security awareness and risk reduction. The company turns employees into active participants in the discovery and resolution of phishing-based cyber-attacks.
“Beauceron Security has demonstrated that its platform is well adapted to help with security needs for small and mid-sized businesses, as well as enterprise businesses,” Eric Laflamme, managing director in CIBC Innovation Banking’s Montreal office, said. “The team was able to understand the untapped needs of the market and translate it into a solution that’s been widely adopted. We are excited to help Beauceron with its growth journey.”
“This is a fantastic opportunity for our firm to continue our ambitious plans,” David Shipley, co-founder and CEO of Beauceron Security, said. “We thoroughly enjoyed working the CIBC Innovation Banking team. They understand how to work with start-ups to help them achieve their full potential. Working with CIBC Innovation Banking is going to help us to scale our business, and with market expansion.”
