Anomali said the funding would help accelerate its growth in the United States and globally while supporting continued cybersecurity product development. That was the company’s stated plan at the time, not evidence of what later happened.

Anomali reported that the Series D brought its investment raised to $96 million across four rounds. That is the company’s cumulative total as reported in 2018; it should not be read as a current funding total.

Who participated, and what roles did they have?
- Lead investor: Lumia Capital.
- Other participants: Deutsche Telekom Capital Partners, Telstra and Sozo Ventures.
- Returning investors: GV, General Catalyst, IVP and Paladin Capital Group.
The announcement also named Drew Hamer as CFO and Christopher Smith as CRO. Lumia Capital partner Martin Gedalin cited the company’s leadership and work in a rapidly emerging cybersecurity area as reasons for investing. Deutsche Telekom Capital Partners managing director Eric Ver Ploeg pointed to Anomali’s customer base and threat-exchange partnerships.
What did Anomali make?
Anomali described its business as threat intelligence, detection, investigation, response and sharing. Its release named ThreatStream, Anomali Match and STAXX; it also described Anomali Limo as a free, out-of-the-box intelligence feed. These descriptions reflect the company’s 2018 announcement, not a statement about current product availability.
The naming can be confusing: Anomali had rebranded from ThreatStream in 2016, while ThreatStream remained the name of a product. The company explained the rebrand in its June 23, 2016 announcement. Contemporaneous TechCrunch coverage likewise distinguished the former company name from the product.

What was not disclosed
TechCrunch reported that Anomali did not discuss its valuation. The company’s release characterized 2017 as a year of record customer growth and product innovation, but gave no customer-growth figure. Neither statement supports assigning a valuation or a numerical growth rate to the company.
