OSQUERY FLEET MANAGER SOFTWARE
Wasserman was a software engineer on the security team at Meta (formerly Facebook) and co-founded two companies, Kolide and Dactiv, before settling in at Fleet. Fleet enables teams building their own DIY security and IT solutions to get the best of both worlds.” Open source originsįleet arose from an open source project called Osquery that was created by CTO Zach Wasserman together with Moonfire Ventures partner Mike Arpaia. “Some organizations have built their own Fleet-like solution from scratch to avoid vendor lock-in and allow them to modify the product as needed. “Fleet lets teams - security engineering, incident response, IT, help desk, compliance, vulnerability management - ask questions about their devices and get answers,” McNeil said. The company’s product acts as a source of truth for device data, allowing teams to see the health of a laptop battery, for example, or whether a file unexpectedly changed on a production server. That’s perhaps why, according to a separate poll by Deloitte, the vast majority (84%) of organizations believe they lack a “truly effective” device management system.įleet aims to address common pain points with a “visibility platform” that manages not only laptops but computing infrastructure, such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices and servers. In a recent survey commissioned by device management platform Kandji, 95% of IT professionals cited remote troubleshooting, onboarding and various forms of security as impediments to success.
Managing employee devices was already tough for IT teams, but the pandemic made the job even tougher. Fleet CEO Mike McNeil says that the new capital - which values the company at $100 million post-money - will be put toward scaling Fleet’s team and building a “more complete” device management feature set. Fleet, a startup offering a service that helps to track and manage enterprise devices like laptops, today announced that it raised $20 million in a Series A round led by CRV with participation from angel investors including GitLab CEO Sid Sijbrandij.
