Security Company Raises Funds to Improve Software Development Safety

Boost Security, a company that helps other businesses build more secure software, has raised 4 million dollars in funding. The company is using this money to expand its platform and has acquired two other companies, SecureIQx and Korbit.ai. Their focus is on helping software developers create products with fewer security flaws from the very beginning of the development process. This news does not directly affect families or require any immediate action. This is a business development story about a company that works behind the scenes to make software more secure. Boost Security does not make consumer products that families use directly. Instead, they provide tools to other companies that build the apps and software families rely on every day. You do not need to do anything in response to this news.

Your personal accounts, devices, and information are not involved. This is simply an announcement about a company receiving investment funding to grow their business. However, it is worth understanding the bigger picture.

When companies like Boost Security help software developers build more secure products, everyone benefits. Better security during the software development process means fewer vulnerabilities in the apps you use for banking, shopping, communication, and entertainment. While you cannot control how companies build their software, you can choose to use services from companies that take security seriously. Look for apps and services that regularly update their software, communicate clearly about security issues, and offer features like two factor authentication to protect your accounts.
