Solera Networks is a cybersecurity company specializing in Big Data Security Intelligence and Analytics for Advanced Threat Protection. Its core product, the Solera DeepSee™ platform, acts as a "security camera for the network," capturing, indexing, and analyzing every packet, file, and flow to detect, reconstruct, and respond to advanced threats like zero-day attacks and targeted breaches.[1][2][4]
The platform serves Global 2000 enterprises, cloud service providers, and government agencies, solving critical problems in real-time situational awareness, incident response, cyber threat protection, data loss prevention, policy compliance, and continuous monitoring. By enabling quick reconstruction of attacks, it minimizes exposure, reduces liabilities, and levels the playing field against sophisticated adversaries that evade traditional tools.[1][4]
Founded in 2006, Solera Networks emerged in the technology services sector focused on network security, initially developing high-speed network forensics solutions for physical and virtual networks.[3][5] The company gained early traction amid rising concerns over web-based threats, reporting over 100% revenue growth in the year leading to 2012.[4]
A pivotal moment came in January 2012 with a $20 million Series D funding round led by Intel Capital, which fueled product upgrades like enhanced Big Data analytics in DeepSee.[4] This backing supported its evolution into a leader in security intelligence, with headquarters shifting across locations including Westlake, South Jordan (Utah), and operations tied to a 650 area code.[2][3]
Solera Networks rode the early Big Data cybersecurity wave in the 2010s, as data centers became cloud hubs and threats evolved to overwhelm legacy tools like intrusion detection and data loss prevention.[4] Its timing aligned with surging enterprise vulnerabilities to advanced attacks, positioning DeepSee as a proactive analytics layer amid the shift to integrated security platforms (SIEM, DPI, malware detection).[1][4]
Market forces like rising zero-day exploits and regulatory compliance demands favored its full-packet capture approach, influencing the ecosystem by pioneering "network camera" forensics. This model prefigured modern tools in extended detection and response (XDR), helping VARs/MSPs enter cloud security while validating Big Data's role in threat hunting.[4][6]
Solera's DeepSee established a forensic benchmark, but as an early player (founded 2006), it likely faced acquisition or evolution amid consolidation in cybersecurity—trends like AI-driven analytics and zero-trust architectures could extend its legacy. Next steps may involve modernizing for hybrid cloud/edge environments, capitalizing on perpetual threat growth.
Shaped by AI-augmented threats and supply chain risks, its influence endures in platforms emphasizing full-fidelity data for breach reconstruction, empowering security teams against tomorrow's invisible attacks—much like its original promise to level the battlefield.[1][4][6]
Solera Networks has raised $42.0M across 3 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $20.0M Series D in January 2012.
