Scrut Automation, an information security compliance platform, has raised $3 million in its seed round from Lightspeed and Endiya Partners.
The platform plans to use the fresh capital to expand operations in the US, European Union (EU), and Asia, enhance automation capabilities, and create the largest marketplace for information security (Infosec) resources, the company said in a press release.
Founded in 2021 by Aayush Ghosh Choudhury and Kush Kaushik, Scrut automates a bulk of labour-intensive compliance tasks by integrating with cloud and SaaS tools and automatically collecting hundreds of evidence artifacts, which would otherwise take weeks to collect.
The Bengaluru-based startup aims to build the largest SaaS-enabled marketplace for Infosec resources, like auditors, penetration testers and subject matter experts.
