Company mission
Expel is on a mission to make security easy to understand, easy to use, and easy to continuously improve.
Our take
As ransomware and hacking threats rise, identifying and resolving breaches in security must be done quickly. Lack of transparency in cyber-security makes it difficult for engineers to detect, understand, and fix the issues as fast as possible. Expel is aiming to redefine what a security operations center and managed detection service looks like in the modern age.
Though the company faces competition from the vast number of cybersecurity platforms, Expel positions itself as a viable alternative to the service delivery model of managed security service providers (MSSPs) by offering a comprehensive management platform that connects to its customers’ tech remotely through APIs, providing fast detection and clear solutions.
Having reached unicorn status, the company is establishing more of a presence in the European and Asia-Pacific markets, capturing business in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and Singapore. Its most recent funding will be used to accelerate sustainable growth and continue its international expansion, as well as push forward with go-to-market initiatives.
