Based in San Francisco, California, CloudPassage provides a software-as-a-service automation platform designed to secure private, public, and hybrid cloud infrastructure environments. The organization utilizes its proprietary Halo technology to deliver comprehensive cloud asset visibility, security posture management, workload protection, and continuous compliance monitoring for Global 2000 customers operating across the technology, finance, e-commerce, and media sectors. Prior to its strategic May 2021 acquisition by Fidelis Cybersecurity, the enterprise software firm scaled its internal operations to approximately 70 full-time employees and secured multiple patents for universal cloud infrastructure security. Throughout its independent operational history, CloudPassage successfully raised $88 million in total venture funding from prominent institutional investors including Benchmark, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Meritech Capital, and Shasta Ventures. The enterprise cybersecurity company was originally founded in 2010 by Carson Sweet, Talli Somekh, and Vitaliy Geraymovych.

CloudPassage has raised $90.0M across 5 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $36.0M Series D in August 2015.
CloudPassage is a cybersecurity company specializing in cloud infrastructure security. It builds CloudPassage Halo®, an award-winning security platform designed to provide automatic discovery of cloud assets, reduce attack surfaces, and detect critical risks that other tools may miss. The product serves enterprises across sectors such as technology, finance, media, e-commerce, and hospitality by offering continuous visibility, compliance, and protection for cloud deployments. CloudPassage has demonstrated growth momentum through its patented innovations and adoption by demanding IT organizations worldwide[1].
Founded in 2009 by Carson Sweet and others, CloudPassage emerged from the need to secure rapidly evolving cloud environments. The founders leveraged their expertise in cybersecurity to create a solution that could provide universal cloud infrastructure security, a pioneering concept at the time. Early traction came from winning patents and recognition as a cloud security innovator, which helped establish credibility and attract investment from leading Silicon Valley venture firms[1].
CloudPassage rides the critical trend of cloud adoption and the corresponding need for robust cloud security posture management. As enterprises increasingly migrate workloads to public clouds, the complexity and attack surface expand, creating demand for automated, scalable security solutions. The timing of CloudPassage’s innovation aligns with this market shift, enabling organizations to maintain compliance and reduce risk in dynamic cloud environments. By integrating security into the development lifecycle and providing unified visibility across multiple cloud platforms, CloudPassage influences the broader ecosystem by setting standards for cloud-native security practices[1][2][3].
Following its acquisition by Fidelis Cybersecurity in 2021, CloudPassage is positioned to deepen its impact on large enterprises, particularly within the Global 2000 segment, reversing its prior focus on SMBs. The future trajectory likely involves expanding its extended detection and response (XDR) capabilities, leveraging Fidelis’s resources to enhance threat detection and response across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. As cloud adoption accelerates and regulatory demands increase, CloudPassage’s platform is well-placed to evolve as a critical component of enterprise cloud security strategies, maintaining its role as a pioneer in automated cloud infrastructure protection[2][3].
CloudPassage has raised $90.0M in total across 5 funding rounds.
