CTRL+ALT+INVEST Invests €800,000 in Attic Security to Drive Cybersecurity Growth and Innovation

CTRL+ALT+INVEST, a venture capital firm specialised in cyber security, artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum technology is investing in Attic Security. An €800,000 funding round allow this fast-growing cyber security startup to expand its marketing, sales and recruitment efforts, enabling the organisation to scale its business and serve a broad customer base around the world.

Attic Security is redefining the way small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) approach cybersecurity. Many SMEs lack the in-house capabilities to defend against cyber threats. Therefore, Attic offers a comprehensive, user-friendly cyber security platform that improves visibility, security and risk management, without large internal teams or complex integrations.

Erik Remmelzwaal, CEO of Attic Security: "We are extremely pleased to partner with CTRL+ALT+INVEST. Their deep knowledge of the sector and strategic network provide an exceptional foundation to help us scale and accelerate our growth. This investment will enable us to enhance our platform, expand our team and continue to deliver high-impact cybersecurity solutions to a broader audience."

Pieter Jansen, Managing Partner at CTRL+ALT+INVEST, emphasises the importance of Attic's platform in addressing a critical market need: "Attic Security offers a unique service that solves a well-known problem for SMEs. Many of these organisations struggle to implement and maintain effective cyber security due to limited expertise and resources. Backed by a team of experienced hackers and cyber security professionals, Attic delivers high-quality solutions to make the digital space more secure. Attic stands out for its extreme scalability, which is an absolute requirement to serve SMEs at a time of severe talent shortages. Their service is connected to Microsoft 365 and other cloud services to provide hardening and monitoring and this can be activated within minutes. We are confident that this investment will allow Attic to accelerate its mission and significantly expand its reach in the European market."
