RunSafe Security Raises $6.3 Million to Immunize Software

RunSafe Security, the pioneer of a patented process to immunize software without developer friction from cyber attacks, today announced the closing of a $6.3 million series A funding round led by Alsop Louie Partners, an early-stage, risk-oriented technology venture capital firm in San Francisco. New investors, Working Lab Capital, Inner Loop Capital and Renegade Ventures, also participated in the round. The investment brings RunSafe's total funding to $8.7 million and will help the company aggressively expand its sales and marketing efforts, as well as broaden and accelerate product development.

Inoculate All Types of Software in Any Environment

RunSafe's product Alkemist hardens software binaries using runtime application self-protection (RASP) and Moving Target Defense (MTD) methods to significantly reduce risk by precluding exploits from spreading across multiple devices and networks. Originally born out of a research project for the Advanced Research Projects Agency of the Department of Defense, Alkemist is the only automated tool to protect open source, in-house developed code, or third-party binaries, while leaving each system functionally identical, but logically unique.

"As 80% of security decisions in DevOps software teams are made by software developers and 75% of kill chains involve a step using a memory corruption vulnerability, RunSafe allows a massive reduction in attack surface with ease of deployment. This boost in cyber immunity fundamentally disrupts hacker economics and allows a reallocation of scarce cybersecurity resources overwhelmed with patching and related basic cyber hygiene efforts," said Joe Saunders, RunSafe Security's founder and CEO. "We founded RunSafe Security to disrupt hacker economics at the root cause in order to render cyber threats inert – and we are delighted with the widespread adoption of Alkemist across DevSecOps toolchains. My team and I are extremely gratified by the continued financial support of our initial investors in RunSafe Security and are thankful to our new investors for their support of our vision."

RunSafe Security was a graduate of Virginia Center for Innovative Technology's Mach37 Cyber Accelerator Fall '17 cohort. Its initial customer base includes organizations across enterprise, suppliers and manufacturers, and national security industries. Additionally, RunSafe Security has consistently garnered third-party awards and recognition for its technology, including:

The Department of Homeland Security released its first update in eight years to the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) list of the 25 most dangerous software errors. The 2019 list identified a new top weakness: "Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer." This top weakness and many other memory based vulnerabilities is exactly the weakness in software code RunSafe Security addresses.

Monster Tree Service Awards Territory in Texas

Monster Tree Service, the nation's first and fastest-growing tree service franchise, is expanding into Texas. Recently featured by SUCCESS magazine, Thrive Global, and Franchise Times, the Monster Tree Service franchise continues to build on its rapid three-year franchise system growth.

Business entrepreneur Christina Rancilio has purchased the rights to a Monster Tree Service Territory in Dallas, Texas, covering North and Northwest Dallas, Park Cities, White Rock Lake and surrounding areas. Rancilio is already getting down to business bringing the Monster brand to her community. Rancilio left a successful career as a technology consultant to pursue her entrepreneurial dreams and invest in Monster Tree Service.

"When I considered hanging up my corporate hat, I always thought I would become a general contractor," said Rancilio. "But this opportunity came along, which allows me to work outside and help customers take care of their properties. I also like working with the Monster team because they give a lot of support to franchise owners."

Josh Skolnick, CEO and Founder of Monster Tree Service, is confident that Rancilio will be a tremendous asset to the Monster Tree Service franchise.

"Christina is a perfect fit for the Monster Tree Service brand," says Skolnick. "Her deep understanding of business, incredible work ethic, and entrepreneurial spirit make her a great addition to our team. I can't wait to see her growth in the coming years."

Monster Tree Service is the only franchise tree company capitalizing on the under-served $17 billion tree service industry. Monster Tree Service has achieved consistent year-over-year, 5 percent growth since 2009, resulting in a $10+ million business. Because it's a high-upside opportunity, and a recession-proof business, Monster Tree Service expects to achieve $100 million in sales by 2021.

"The tornado that hit Dallas this year left a lot of devastation," says Rancilio. "A lot of older mature trees were damaged, and homeowners are calling us to save their trees. One member of my team is a climber with 30 years of experience in tree care, so people know they can trust us to do a good job. We're also excited to offer the community our wide array of services, including, plant health care, tree removal, shrub pruning and more."

Holo Acquires Hylo Community and Collaboration Software

We're excited to announce that Holo has recently acquired the Hylo software product. Hylozoic, Inc. has been building tools to support collaboration within and between communities and networks for many years. Hylo, their flagship platform, was created to support people solving the great challenges of our time and empower communities to build a world that works for everyone. It has been used by communities in over 80 countries around the world.

Hylo has many features we are thrilled to take advantage of that will benefit Holo and our global community equally.

Hylo's user interface design (UI) will serve as the basis for a Holo UI design-language, ensuring we have a beautiful, ready to use framework for creating the front-ends of our core apps.

Encouraging collaboration between communities is a key part of our organizational DNA and we've also acquired Hylo to extend that intention throughout the Holo and Holochain ecosystems. Hylo's currently operational app is a well-architected communication platform that will serve as an open-source commons for the Holochain community to use and build a next generation of collaboration tools. These tools are especially important in evolution and growth of co-ops, NGOS and other communities committed to a healthy internet.

Additionally, from both a design and an engineering perspective, the way Hylo is structured makes it perfectly suited to being converted to run in the future as a decentralized application on Holochain. The Hylo code base will be instrumental in helping us demonstrate how a centralised app can be transformed into a distributed app. When a centralised app is architected with sufficiently modularity, the UI may need only minimal changes to support the evolution to a distributed app.

This acquisition will help foster collaboration amongst our community and help everyone get the most out of both Holo and Holochain.

Be sure to check back for more exciting information and updates!

About Holo

The Holo hosting platform lets you run web-apps in a fully distributed manner, on potentially thousands of nodes all over the world, with no single point of failure, and no central control over the data.

Holo does to cloud computing what Airbnb did to hotels… and so much more. Holo is helping to grow a more human Internet — where you own your personal data and choose how your applications work. With Holo, you share your computer's spare capacity to help others connect to peer-to-peer apps. When people use the apps you host, you can get rewarded in cryptocurrency by the app's creators.

Holo is built on Holochain, a framework for distributed applications, that allow people to build apps without any network constraints. This means every user controls their own data, and it can't be sold or exposed to third parties. For app developers who want to learn how to build on Holochain and transform centralized apps to distributed ones, find out more: https://developer.holochain.org
