Red Sift today announced that it raised $54 million in Series B funding. Highland Europe led the round with participation from new and existing investors, including Sands Capital, MMC Ventures, and Oxford Capital Partners. Sam Brooks, partner at Highland Europe, and Michael Graninger, partner at SANDS Capital, will join the company’s Board of Directors. The new investment brings Red Sift’s total funding raised to $69.8 million.
Red Sift will use the funds to further accelerate its global expansion with plans for a new US headquarters in Austin, Texas, and growth initiatives across the Asia Pacific, Europe, and Middle East regions. Additionally, the company is hiring across all departments, and doubling down on its platform innovation.

Red Sift, alongside partner Entrust, delivers the only integrated solution that helps organizations achieve BIMI certification to enhance email security and protect brand reputation.
