Field Effect, an Ottawa, Canada-based global cybersecurity SaaS company, announced that it raised a total of $34.5 million in funding.

The investment was from Edison Partners, a prominent U.S. growth equity investment firm, and Round13 Growth Fund, a highly respected, late-stage Canadian growth equity investment fund.

Lenard Marcus, a general partner of Edison Partners who led the investment, joined the company’s board of directors

"We are thrilled to be working with Edison Partners and Round13 Growth Fund as we continue to evolve our cybersecurity solutions," said Matt Holland, Field Effect's co-founder, and CEO.
