BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Immuta, the leader in automated data access and privacy protection for cloud data platforms, today announced record growth in 2021, increasing annual recurring revenue (ARR) by more than 100 percent, doubling its customer base, and continuing its global expansion into EMEA and APJ.
Fueled by a $90 million Series D funding round in May of 2021, Immuta continued making significant investments in product innovation, deepening partner relationships, strengthening its leadership team, and building out its sales, marketing, and customer success teams with top talent.
“Immuta built incredible momentum in 2021 and cemented itself as the leading SaaS solution for data access, privacy, and compliance for global businesses,” said Matthew Carroll, CEO, Immuta. “By delivering secure data access, Immuta helps organizations protect data by ensuring the right data is in the right hands at the right time, as long as they have the right. Our continued growth, not just financially but in terms of partnerships, customers, employees, and investor interest, which speaks to the surging demand for a scalable solution to automate data access and privacy protection across an organization’s entire cloud data infrastructure.”
Highlights from Immuta’s last fiscal year include:
Customers:
Immuta significantly expanded its market share across enterprises of all sizes, including global financial services, insurance, healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, retail, and public sector organizations, as well as leading tech firms and startups. Immuta’s automated data access platform enables organizations to unlock the full value of their data – even the most sensitive – while improving productivity, reducing time to data, maintaining strong compliance and security, and enabling new data sharing use cases.
Global companies and tech innovators use Immuta to enable access to their cloud data while preserving data privacy, allowing them to securely increase speed and scale.
“What makes Immuta unique is how its platform unlocks our data’s value by making it automatically, yet securely, available to all the analysts who need it – regardless of what BI or data science tools they’re using,” said Don Garnica, Global Head of Core Cloud Platforms at Janus Henderson.
Innovation:
Immuta’s innovation drives its continued growth, offering customers a unique, unrivaled data access control solution to help meet a variety of data challenges. In September, GigaOm released an independent report that positioned Immuta as the category leader and most innovative solution, ahead of all other data access control providers. The report found that Immuta’s attribute-based access control (ABAC) required 75x fewer policy changes and offered significant cost savings compared to legacy role-based access control (RBAC).
In 2021, Immuta also introduced several product updates, including the availability of its SaaS deployment option, which helps organizations with global footprints meet surging demand for cloud-based data access platforms across all geographic jurisdictions.
“In this dynamic privacy environment, Immuta’s SaaS deployment option enables us to provide the highest level of security for customer data,” said Tom Tercek, Co-Founder & CSO of Pumpjack Dataworks.
Immuta also received its SOC 2 Type 2 certification, which verifies its ability to provide the most robust data security and privacy for its rapidly expanding customer base.
Furthermore, Immuta was recognized with a Disruptive Technology Award from Credit Suisse last year, and In 2020, Immuta was named #30 on Fast Company's World’s Most Innovative Company List.
Deepened Partnerships with Industry leaders:
In 2021, Immuta further strengthened relationships and expanded its partner network of top cloud data platforms, which now includes Snowflake, Databricks, Amazon Redshift, Google BigQuery, Azure Synapse, and Starburst.
Committed to providing an integrated solution for customers worldwide, Immuta works closely with cloud partners to accelerate cloud data and analytics initiatives by automating data security, access, and privacy protection. Through its strategic partnerships and integrated native data governance capabilities, Immuta helps cloud providers deliver a more streamlined experience, and allows joint customers to securely access and share data across departments and with partners, vendors, and customers – without moving or copying the data.
