LookingGlass Completes Series B Financing; Acquires CloudShield

Palo Alto – March 30, 2014 – Cooley advised LookingGlass Cyber Solutions Inc., a leading provider of threat intelligence, on two recent transactions.

The $20 million Series B funding round led by Neuberger Berman Private Equity Funds with participation by Alsop Louie Capital was announced on March 24, 2015.

The Cooley corporate team advising LookingGlass on its Series B financing included partner Matt Bartus and associates Eric Dixon and Daniel Elefant.

This announcement comes on the heels of LookingGlass's March 2 acquisition of CloudShield LLC, a company that provides a highly secure, network defense platform that offers customers faster and more intelligent ways to observe and manipulate network traffic to fight cyber assaults. According to a LookingGlass statement, "The acquisition of CloudShield acknowledges the importance of combining threat intelligence with policy enforcement to directly address escalating threats, and it positions LookingGlass to deliver the most comprehensive, scalable and secure cyber network defense platform."
