Our take

The increasing adoption of cloud platforms has made it more and more difficult for security teams to monitor all aspects of their business. Panther Labs solves this problem with its scalable solution specifically tailored for cloud-first companies.

Panther Labs' platform acts as an alternative to traditional SIEMs, which have failed to keep up with the shift towards cloud services. Panther was founded by security engineering experts from companies such as Airbnb and AWS. This has enabled the company to keep developers' and security teams' needs and challenges in mind. In 2021, the company raised an impressive $120 million in funding, making it a unicorn. This is a testament to Panther's growing impact in the cloud security sector.

Panther Labs' main challenge will be competing with rival cloud security SIEMs like LogRhythm and QRadar. However, Panther's ongoing funding success and growing roster of enterprise clients (which now includes AWS and Dropbox) indicate that the company is gathering further momentum.
