Introduction
Delta-v Capital is excited to announce our recent investment in Corelight, a leader in Network Detection and Response (NDR). With the growing prevalence of cyber threats, the need for cutting-edge network security solutions is also increasing. Corelight has long been a leader in this category as the developer of open-source technologies like Zeek and Suricata that offer enterprises deep visibility into network traffic. Today, Corelight’s enterprise offering provides security teams with real-time detection and analysis of suspicious activity across complex infrastructures.
Corelight's Value Proposition
Corelight fills one of the largest gaps in the Security Operations Center (SOC) by providing visibility into network data—a key input often missing from traditional XDR (Extended Detection and Response) solutions, which rely more on endpoint data. As businesses scale their use of hybrid cloud environments, Corelight’s platform ensures security teams can also track and mitigate threats across the entire network.
Corelight seamlessly integrates with major XDR and SIEM platforms like CrowdStrike, Google, Cisco and others. Network visibility adds tremendous value to customers seeking holistic security coverage. This interoperability, combined with Corelight’s focus on data granularity and configurability, positions Corelight as a leading choice for large enterprises and government institutions.
Corelight has continued to innovate with the release of its AI-powered Investigator product, designed to streamline threat investigation workflows. Investigator accelerates the detection and response process, providing critical insights to reduce resolution times.
Investment Thesis
Our investment in Corelight reflects a shared belief in the company’s long-term growth potential and its ability to expand its market presence. Corelight’s strong gross margins, customer retention, and rapid ARR growth underscore its potential to continue leading the NDR category, a critical component of modern cybersecurity strategies. With a growing customer base and strategic relationships across the industry, Corelight is poised to meet the escalating demand for network security solutions, positioning itself as a trusted partner for enterprises around the world.
