Press Release: PGP Corporation Secures $27.3 Million in Series C Funding
Round Includes New Investors Intel Capital and The D. E. Shaw Group
Palo Alto, CA/20 June, 2007 - PGP Corporation, a global leader in enterprise data protection, today announced it has closed $27.3 million in Series C funding. The round adds new investors Intel Capital, the venture capital arm of Intel Corporation, and the D. E. Shaw group, a global investment and technology development firm with approximately $30 billion in aggregate investment capital. The round also includes participation from existing investors DCM (formerly known as DCM-Doll Capital Management) and Venrock.
PGP Corporation will use the new financing to accelerate organic and inorganic technology development and further fund its channel expansion. The company's vision is to extend key management functionality in the PGP® Encryption Platform to transparently manage third-party devices and software from PGP, ISVs, and customers' in-house applications. Unified key management, already proven with third-party developers such as Research In Motion, is crucial to Enterprise Data Protection, a new approach to data security that enables enterprises to protect data wherever it goes. Extensible key management also provides lower cost of ownership and lower deployment costs because devices, applications, and data can be protected with a single set of policies.
"Intel Capital and the D. E. Shaw group have an exemplary track record, so we're pleased to join their portfolios. We also appreciate the strong continued support from our existing investors because their interest validates the exciting opportunity ahead," said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. "Simply put, unified key management is the next big thing in security and removes perhaps the final perceived barrier to enterprise encryption adoption. Our approach to delivering this scalable, manageable vision is a journey, not a sprint, but this funding clearly accelerates development."
"Proliferation of smarter devices combined with next-generation wireless networks leads to more information being transmitted to the edge of the network. PGP Corporation's platform approach plus its whole disk encryption and key management differentiators provide value to enterprises with a mobile workforce," said Sriram Viswanathan, vice president, Intel Capital and general manager of Wimax Program Office, Intel Corporation. "We share PGP Corporation's vision of offering customers additional security on mobile devices, and we're excited to be working with them on this initiative."
André Turenne, a senior vice president of D. E. Shaw & Co., L.P. and an executive of the D.E. Shaw group's venture capital unit, joins PGP Corporation's Board of Directors. Mr. Turenne has more than 25 years of operating, technical, and venture investment experience in the technology sector. Prior to joining the D. E. Shaw group in 2006, Mr. Turenne was a managing director of NeoCarta Ventures, Inc., a leading venture capital investment firm. Before that, he served as senior manager of strategic investments at Intel Capital. Mr. Turenne commented, "Software to protect enterprise data is an area of focus, and we think PGP Corporation is poised to dominate. With an experienced management team, innovative products, top brands as customers, and a mature channel, we believe the company is well on its way to industry leadership. We look forward to offering our experience and perspective to the PGP team."
The funding comes on the heels of another successful year for PGP Corporation as the company realized record revenue in 2006 and saw balanced customer adoption of the PGP Encryption Platform worldwide. The company continues to achieve enterprise acceptance of the PGP Encryption Platform, with PGP® products now in use at 95 percent of the 2006 Fortune® 100 companies, 87 percent of the German DAX Index companies, and more than 80,000 enterprises, businesses, and governments worldwide. In its first full fiscal year, PGP® Whole Disk Encryption, an award-winning full disk encryption solution for enterprise data protection, contributed approximately 25 percent of the company's bookings. The company has enjoyed a strong start to calendar year 2007, recently launching a new global channel program and refreshing its innovative product portfolio.
