FBI G-Men's iSekurity Raises $11M To Thwart Identify Thugs
DC-based iSekurity has raised an initial $11M from PE firm Equity 11. iSekurity's marketing spin is that it is the the largest collection of former federal agents in the US. The new Elliot Ness gang is on a mission to fight identity theft.
iSekurity sells protection to corporations to shield both customers and employees, as well as affinity organizations and industry trade groups and the higher education market. CEO Susan Kampe was VP and GM of Global Information Technology for Johnson Controls.
We like the quote from founder Reggie Ball to identity thieves: "If you mess with our members, we are going after you. We are going to find you, and we are going to stop you."
