Luminate Security, which specializes in software-defined perimeter technology, will extend Symantec’s integrated defense platform.<\/span> <\/p>\n

Symantec has confirmed its acquisition of Luminate Security, a startup specializing in software-defined perimeter technology and zero-trust access between users and cloud applications.<\/p>\n

As more companies adopt infrastructure, they must still be responsible for their data and users. Luminate’s Secure Access Cloud is built to handle access to corporate resources and applications both on-prem and in the cloud. IT and security managers can scale private access control so employees only have access to data and applications they are authorized to use.<\/p>\n

Symantec plans to leverage Luminate’s technology in its Integrated Cyber Defense platform. Its goal, it seems, is to strike the delicate balance between cloud security and user experience.<\/p>\n

Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Luminate has raised a total of $14 million in funding over two rounds; most recently, it announced $11 million in Series A in March 2018. Prior to this deal, Symantec\u00a0purchased<\/a> mobile security vendor Skycure and browser isolation firm Fireglass<\/a>, both within a two-week window in July 2017.<\/p>\n
