NEW YORK –– Artificial intelligence-powered real-time event, threat and risk intelligence platform Dataminr has announced its intent to acquire ThreatConnect, an intelligence management platform for contextualizing and prioritizing threats across internal client data environments.
The transaction values ThreatConnect at $290 million.
“The fusion of Dataminr’s leading AI platform for public data signals with ThreatConnect’s deep internal data capabilities will create the industry’s first-ever agentic AI-powered client-tailored intelligence,” according to the joint announcement.
Dataminr’s AI agents “will dynamically reason across both the internal and external data domains to deliver real-time intelligence that is context-aware, personalized and automatically adapts to the unique needs of individual customers,” the announcement says.
Why Did Dataminr Acquire ThreatConnect?
“We are thrilled to be joining forces with ThreatConnect’s amazing 170-person mission-oriented team that shares in our passion for delivering customer value through rapid AI innovation,” says Ted Bailey, founder and CEO of Dataminr, in the joint announcement.
“By uniting our AI platform with the capabilities of ThreatConnect, Dataminr will fuse external public data signals and internal client data to pioneer the first-ever real-time client-tailored intelligence,” he says. “The future of Dataminr’s real-time intelligence will be more relevant and actionable than ever before—enabling our clients to not just understand what is happening, but what it means to them, and how they should respond.”
Relied on by 250 enterprise and government organizations, including one-third of the Fortune 50, ThreatConnect’s customers leverage the platform to prioritize emerging threats and automate response. The
ThreatConnect platform is trusted by many of the world’s most sophisticated organizations, including four of the five largest tech companies in the world and enterprises including Natwest, Nike, Wells Fargo, Wyndham Hotels, and General Parts Corporation, as well as government agencies in the U.S., UK, Australia and more.
“ThreatConnect has spent years helping enterprises and government cyber defense organizations bring order to vast amounts of threat and risk intelligence,” says Balaji Yelamanchili, CEO of ThreatConnect, in the joint announcement.
“The world’s leading enterprises rely on our platform to bring context, prioritization, speed, and precision to cyber defense,” he says. “We are thrilled to join forces with Dataminr and combine our powerful platforms, creating new ways to deliver client-tailored intelligence and greater value to customers around the world.”
Dataminr Pulse for Cyber Risk and ThreatConnect will become a joint offering to empower cyber customers with enhanced client-tailored AI-powered threat intelligence, risk-based prioritization and more precise response.
Beyond cybersecurity, Dataminr will leverage ThreatConnect’s core platform capabilities and expertise to accelerate internal client data fusion from a broader ecosystem of additional partner and client data environments that span the physical, digital and cybersecurity domains.
Existing ThreatConnect customers can expect continued support and development, along with accelerated innovation for the product they rely on today. Over time, both ThreatConnect’s and Dataminr’s Pulse for Cyber Risk customers will be offered enhancements that combine the two product’s capabilities, advancing the next generation of threat intelligence.
The acquisition of ThreatConnect caps a year of record momentum for Dataminr. In September, the company completed a $300 million financing led by Fortress and NightDragon and launched agentic AI capability Intel Agents for the physical world.
