With its $30M Series A funding round, Sentra looks set to continue its mission and further entrench its position as the leading provider of cloud security.

The funding will be used to expand Sentra’s security capabilities and support its mission to provide an advanced security layer for cloud data. Additionally, Sentra plans to use the funds to fuel product innovation, expand its customer base and attract top talent to support company growth.
“We are excited about the growth opportunity in the cloud security space for Sentra,” said Sentra CEO and co-founder Divya Jain. “Our mission is to help organizations better protect their sensitive cloud data by providing an additional layer of security. It’s essential that organizations realize that cyber threats are evolving and they should not be relying solely on a cloud provider to secure their data.”
