LogicGate Announces EMEA Expansion to Meet Growing Demand for Holistic GRC Solutions

CHICAGO –– February 1, 2023 –– LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its…

CHICAGO –– February 1, 2023 –– LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud® platform, today announced an expanded international presence and partnership to help risk leaders across the world transform, connect, and scale their GRC programs. To support its growth, LogicGate launched a new partnership with Climb Channel Solutions, an international specialty technology distributor and wholly-owned subsidiary of Climb Global Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLMB). According to Gartner, 75% of the global population will have privacy protections by the end of 2024. As the global regulatory environment grows increasingly complex, companies need to bring security and privacy teams together to increase collaboration, communication and visibility across the organization. Through their partnership, LogicGate and Climb will help multinational organizations navigate global security and privacy concerns by developing holistic, centralized and connected GRC programs. “In today’s evolving GRC landscape, privacy doesn’t equal security, and security doesn’t always translate to compliance,” said Andy Ruse, president of field operations at LogicGate. “As organizations navigate the complexities of our global regulatory system, they need to move beyond ‘checking the compliance box’ to ensure their systems are compliant and secure. By partnering with Climb, we’re taking a major step forward in bringing holistic GRC to the EMEA market and helping global companies transform their risks into strategic opportunities.” Leveraging the partnership, LogicGate will strategically expand its EMEA presence by increasing sales and customer success for its Risk Cloud platform. The company’s fast-growing user base in the region includes customers like Equiniti, Zurich Insurance, and Luno. “In today’s global risk landscape, many companies have difficulty communicating privacy and security issues to stakeholders, prioritizing decision-making on business context and aligning teams around shared outcomes,” said Andrew Fidgeon, Business Development Director at Climb Channel Solutions. “LogicGate’s Risk Cloud platform enables leaders to ensure their systems are both compliant and secure by easily breaking down silos and encouraging cross-departmental collaboration across the organization.” LogicGate’s international expansion marks another important milestone in the company’s growth plans. This year alone, LogicGate has released eight GRC Applications and continues to innovate in cyber risk and controls compliance, including advancements in cyber risk quantification and continuous control monitoring integrations. Because of its investment in the Risk Cloud platform, LogicGate was recognized as a “Strong Performer” in The Forrester Wave™: Third-Party Risk Management Platforms, Q2 2022 report and named a Leader on the G2 Grid Report for GRC Platforms in Winter 2023 for the 14th consecutive quarter.

He also played a critical role in architecting and improving Dell Technologies’ Trust Platform, a comprehensive security automation and visibility technology. Before joining Dell Technologies, Kathmann managed security and compliance at VirtuStream, which Dell acquired in 2020, and bolstered his enterprise experience at Dell EMC, RSA and more. “With more complex, rapidly evolving threats, companies need holistic GRC programs to continuously assess and manage their risk postures,” Kathmann said. “However, to deliver these solutions, we have a greater responsibility to offer innovative security processes that keep our customers and our company's data safe. I'm eager to get to work to help strengthen our platform's security, cultivate trust among our Risk Cloud user base, and allowing LogicGate customers to strengthen their security posture." Kathmann’s hiring comes as LogicGate scales its Risk Cloud platform to empower users to develop agile, holistic risk programs. The company recently announced its Cyber Risk & Controls Compliance Solution, empowering IT leaders to visualize, understand and optimize their cybersecurity posture.

LogicGate Maps the Journey to Holistic GRC at Agility 2022

LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud® platform, concluded its third…

CHICAGO –– Sept. 30, 2022 –– LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud® platform, concluded its third annual user conference, Agility 2022. Under the theme of “Real Risk. Real Solutions. Real Rewards.,” Agility 2022 convened privacy, GRC and risk management leaders to share best practices on how to manage cyber and operational risks in a holistic and secure way. Sessions were led by LogicGate leadership and Risk Cloud experts, industry thought leaders and customers including Optiv, Zoom, Honeywell, Equiniti, Delta Dental of Michigan, Purpose Financial and more. Several key themes emerged from two days of insightful strategic and technical sessions: Just start: Risk programs aren’t created overnight. You should start assessing data maturity, defining risks, creating workflows and implementing risk assessments into the organization. Not every risk or scenario is the same, but it’s important to start. At Salesforce's annual Dreamforce conference, Co-CEO Marc Benioff addressed the importance of security: “There’s no finish line when it comes to security and social engineering. There are things that we're going to need to do to help our customers prevent these kinds of issues.” Before formalizing a risk program, GRC professionals should: (1) Implement risk policies before trying to execute them. (2) Educate leaders on the company’s risk posture while building the program, not afterward. (3) Always think in terms of people, process and technology – in that order. Prioritize cyber risk: Nearly 75% of global cyber-risk decision makers have experienced at least one cyberattack in the past year. Whether it’s a phishing scam or a data breach, cyber risk management helps companies execute plans to counteract security problems. Cyber risk management is enterprise risk management in today’s business landscape. But don’t let it be the organization’s blind spot – use a business system inventory to centralize all data, create cross-functional processes to communicate cyber risk, and add business context to cyber risk decision-making. Break down organizational silos: Risk is everyone’s responsibility. You need to create a shared language of risk throughout your organization and identify champions for risk measurement and mitigation. The more risk becomes a common discussion throughout an organization, the better. When communicating risk to the board, leverage risk quantification to translate it into terms its members understand – business impact.  “LogicGate is deeply committed to empowering our customers. We want them to win and find success,” said Matt Kunkel, co-founder and CEO of LogicGate. “But after meeting with our customers again at Agility 2022, it’s clear that risk management is a journey, not a finish line. Effective risk management requires businesses to build trust within the organization and across key stakeholders. Creating a holistic risk culture helps every employee understand how risks map back to strategic goals and objectives, breaking down the silos that prevent businesses from maximizing their risk ROI.”  To access Agility 2022’s on-demand sessions, visit agility.logicgate.com.

CHICAGO –– May 17, 2022 –– LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud® platform, has been recognized as a "Strong Performer" in The Forrester Wave™: Third-Party Risk Management Platforms, Q2 2022 report by leading global research and advisory firm Forrester Research, Inc.

Jay and Andy’s collective expertise in building world-class teams and driving strategic growth through cross-functional collaboration and customer-first mindsets will be invaluable. Their deep expertise and personal values, which closely reflect those of LogicGate’s, will perfectly complement our executive team and culture.” Jay Jamison will oversee LogicGate’s product organization, driving scalability through high-growth product strategies.

LogicGate Adds Environmental, Social And Governance Solution

Risk Cloud’s ESG Solution centralizes data and information for program management and reporting

CHICAGO — April 21, 2022 — LogicGate, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud® platform, today introduces a new solution to help organizations measure, track and report on their ESG goals and initiatives. LogicGate’s new Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Applications within Risk Cloud equip leaders to bring their ESG initiatives to life and show stakeholders progress and results, ultimately aligning environmental, social and governance efforts to strengthen their GRC programs.   “ESG reflects the integrity of an organization. But it’s not just about the goals they announce — it’s about the policies they put in place, the actions they take, and their ability to show progress toward those goals,” said Jon Siegler, Chief Product Officer at LogicGate. “Our ESG Solution enhances our customer’s holistic approach to GRC, enabling them to streamline their ESG reporting processes within the platform they already rely on, whether they’re just getting started with ESG or looking to optimize their current processes. It gives them the tools to build trust through transparency.” Measuring and reporting on ESG criteria is vital as investors increasingly scrutinize ESG risks. From how a company offsets its emissions to how it accomplishes DEI goals and ensures data privacy, stakeholders expect organizations to demonstrate their commitment to environmental protection, social initiatives and corporate transparency. Reporting is essential to the accountability customers, employees and investors seek, but the requirements vary by industry and country, leading to confusion and requiring time-consuming manual effort. Risk Cloud’s ESG Solution simplifies that process by providing a centralized platform to identify ESG initiatives, track and assess related risks, link applicable policies, and give organizations enhanced capabilities to track overall compliance and ESG progress. This information can then easily be gathered to create effectual reports to share with the public, as well as stakeholders. Using LogicGate’s Risk Cloud Applications and Risk Cloud Exchange (RCX), an ecosystem that offers a holistic view into the interconnected world of GRC, customers can integrate the frameworks most relevant to their industry, identify environmental and social risks and benefits, assess and address social responsibilities relevant to their mission and operations, and gain insight into third-party ESG risks. Customers can use the following for managing and reporting on ESG initiatives: Environmental and Social Impact Analysis Application Corporate Social Responsibility Application Third-Party Risk Management SIG Lite Application Regulatory Compliance CUBE Integration This new ESG Solution comes as LogicGate has enhanced its audit capabilities to eliminate silos between risk, compliance and audit teams and expanded its executive team to support strategic growth through the hiring of CFO Kara Smith and CPO Caroline Werner.

Security ratings services provider boosts holistic view of supply chain risk

CHICAGO — March 30, 2022 — LogicGate®, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions, today announces its partnership with Black Kite, a leader in third-party cyber risk intelligence, to enhance its holistic risk quantification solution for third parties. The integration of Black Kite’s cyber ratings, Open FAIR™ financial risk quantification, compliance correlation and Ransomware Susceptibility Index™ into LogicGate’s Risk Cloud® platform offers executives unmatched insight into their risk posture to better help them manage cyber risks with suppliers and partners.  “At LogicGate, we’re seeking ways to help our customers make objective decisions about the risks they face, rather than relying on gut feel,” says Jon Siegler, Chief Product Officer of LogicGate. “With the integration of Black Kite to our existing Risk Cloud Third-Party Risk Management Application and Risk Cloud Quantify®, we’re equipping organizations with a powerful solution to proactively assess risks posed by third-parties and share findings with stakeholders in terms everyone can understand.” With functionality that goes far beyond heat maps, Black Kite’s integration with Risk Cloud’s Third-Party Risk Management Application and Risk Cloud Quantify helps organizations determine which vendors pose the highest threat to their business. Like Risk Cloud Quantify, Black Kite uses the Open FAIR model to calculate the financial impact of risk. When used in tandem with Risk Cloud Quantify, this integration fosters a strong risk culture by converting ambiguous data into monetary values.  “This partnership couldn’t be a better fit. It feels like the natural progression of Black Kite becoming a LogicGate customer, and we share LogicGate’s perspective on risk quantification as the way forward for risk professionals,” says Bob Maley, Chief Security Officer at Black Kite. “Our product fits seamlessly into the powerful risk quantification functionality LogicGate already offers its customers. We’re confident this integration will help organizations incorporate security ratings into their cyber risk programs, scale their third-party risk programs and increase their precision to communicate risk to stakeholders.”  The partnership comes at a pivotal time, as LogicGate has upgraded its audit capabilities to eliminate silos between risk, compliance and audit teams, supporting a holistic GRC program. At the same time, LogicGate has expanded its executive team to support strategic growth through the hiring of CFO Kara Smith and CPO Caroline Werner, following the closing of its $113 million Series C funding round in 2021. As a result of its commitment to excellence, LogicGate was named a Gold Winner in the 2022 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, a leader in G2’s list of leading GRC platforms for the 11th consecutive quarter and was awarded Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplace for the second year in a row.

According to Gartner, “by 2023, organizational spending on TPRM technologies to support due diligence and monitoring will increase by 50%.” The report says, “For many organizations, the pandemic exposed the fragility of the organization’s third-party network and impressed the need to flex quickly to new third and fourth parties in the extended enterprise to meet demand without increasing risk exposure.” “LogicGate’s inclusion in this Gartner report is a testament to how our product is helping our customers run more interconnected and holistic risk and compliance programs,” said LogicGate’s chief product officer, Jon Siegler. “The variety and intensity of risk continues to become more complex. Our platform removes silos between functional teams that collaborate on third-party risk management and other GRC processes and brings a holistic picture of risk. We’re proud to receive continual recognition that reflects this.” In addition to its Market Guide, Gartner recently named LogicGate to three different Hype Cycle™ reports: Cyber and IT Risk Management, 2021; Legal and Compliance Technologies, 2021; and Security Operations, 2021. In each Hype Cycle, LogicGate is noted as a Sample Vendor for integrated risk management (IRM). The Gartner Hype Cycle Reports identify the effectiveness of emerging technologies to solve problems and pinpoint opportunities. Their vendor assessments help companies evaluate the potential value and risks of adoption within different industries.

LogicGate Announces Risk Cloud Quantify™, Enabling Platform Users With the Power of Risk Quantification

New risk quantification product provides enterprise-wide risk analyses in financial terms

CHICAGO — September 28, 2021— LogicGateⓇ, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions, introduced Risk Cloud Quantify® during LogicGate’s annual Agility 2021 conference. As part of Risk Cloud, Risk Cloud Quantify gives users a competitive advantage by converting once ambiguous data into clear monetary values. This common language promotes shared understanding to drive strategic decision-making and proactive risk management. Organizations tend to assess risk using imprecise qualitative labels, such as “high”, “medium”, and “low.” These words are easily misinterpreted — or carry different meanings depending on the audience — and leave organizations vulnerable to potential (and significant) risks. A lack of consistent, reliable processes and clear communication creates avoidable roadblocks for fostering a good risk culture.  Gartner estimates that by 2023, 30% of a CISO’s effectiveness will be directly measured on the ability to create value for the business. And according to PwC, 81% of those who quantify cyber risk said the process helps increase productivity and focus on strategic matters. Risk quantification empowers companies to understand risk as a revenue driver and competitive differentiator.  “Our vision is to elevate the function of risk management within organizations and make them more of a strategic partner to the business,” said Jon Siegler, Chief Product Officer of LogicGate. “Over the past two years, we’ve spoken to an increasing number of customers that desire to use more quantitative data as part of their holistic risk management programs - to help better communicate risk to senior leadership and the board. Risk Cloud Quantify helps our customers improve risk-based decision making and communicate risk across their entire organization more effectively by speaking the same language as the rest of the business.”  Built using the Open FAIR™ model, Risk Cloud Quantify sets itself apart from competitors by quantifying risks beyond cybersecurity use cases. Risk Cloud Quantify empowers LogicGate Risk Cloud users to more easily communicate threats cross-functionally to executives, board members and other stakeholders while adopting a proactive, ROI-based risk approach to use risk as a true revenue generator. To support those interested in risk quantification, the company recently released its new eBook, The Definitive Guide to Risk Quantification, to offer insights on how risk quantification improves risk management capabilities, how it works, and what companies should consider before adopting it. In addition to the content, the eBook also includes a workbook for readers to practice the tactical act of risk quantification. This announcement follows LogicGate’s $113M Series C funding, placement as a strong performer in the Forrester Wave and its inclusion in the Inc. 5000 2021, where it placed in the top 11 percent.

Evaluated according to 25 criteria, LogicGate earned the highest possible score in the Planned Enhancements, Partner Ecosystem and Customer Engagement and Community criteria.  According to the report, Risk Cloud’s visual workflow editor, platform configurability and cross-modular integration are its strengths, also noting that, “Unlike other vendors, there are no restrictions on what modules can be purchased together or additional tiers of functionality that come at an additional cost.” In its evaluation, Forrester indicated that the company has the potential to differentiate and compete with larger players both in capabilities and strategy. “LogicGate is a good fit for lean teams with few FTEs but that don’t want to sacrifice platform configurability and control,” stated the report. “We are thrilled that LogicGate has been recognized as a strong performer in Forrester’s GRC Wave,” said LogicGate’s chief product officer, Jon Siegler. “There’s not a business out there that isn’t having conversations about risk, making our Risk Cloud all the more relevant for companies looking for a better way to facilitate their GRC programs. We are committed to continuous innovation and to our mission of empowering our customers with flexible, easy-to-use technology that steers the course of their success, transforming business risks into strategic opportunities.” LogicGate’s recognition follows strong momentum propelled by the Series C funding round, local and national recognition for its rapid growth, and for the ninth consecutive quarter, inclusion as a Leader on the G2 Grid Fall 2021 report for GRC Platforms. The company also plans to launch a new risk quantification solution, Risk Cloud Quantify® later this month.

Funding will be used to fuel innovation and accelerate growth

CHICAGO — July 28, 2021— LogicGate®, a leading provider of transformative risk and compliance solutions through its Risk Cloud™ platform, today announces a $113 million Series C funding round led by PSG, a leading growth equity firm partnering with middle-market software and technology-enabled services companies. Greenspring Associates also meaningfully increased its commitment since their original investment in 2019. “Today, the market for risk and compliance tools is experiencing significant growth and innovation, which we believe is similar to the CRM market 10-15 years ago,” said Matt Kunkel, CEO of LogicGate. “We’re thrilled to partner with PSG and continue our relationship with Greenspring as we aim to address the market demand for a holistic no-code platform equipped with the tools and agility required to meet the evolving risk management needs of modern organizations.”   According to Gartner, the integrated risk management (IRM) market is projected to experience growth of 12.6% in 2021, with the total addressable market expected to grow to $9.3 billion by 2023. In a Gartner survey of risk managers, the top three risk management priorities for their companies — a greater focus on building operational resilience, building business model resilience, and risk interdependencies and cross-functional response — all require an IRM approach.  Since its inception in 2015, LogicGate has embraced its mission to create flexible, easy-to-use enterprise technology for accurately assessing, monitoring, actioning, and rapidly pivoting GRC programs to changing maturity levels. Today, LogicGate serves hundreds of customers, including SoFi, Zurich Insurance, Memorial Hermann Health, and Cimpress, who are using the robust Risk Cloud platform in an effort to build and scale a myriad of entry-level to sophisticated risk, compliance, regulatory and security programs that go beyond asset protection to revenue creation. The company continues to grow its client roster and out-of-the-box applications, which can be found on the Risk Cloud Exchange marketplace, as well as its technology partnerships and channel sales.  “LogicGate has a leading platform that leverages their no-code solution for a broad array of customers spanning a variety of industries globally,” said Adam Marcus, LogicGate board member and Managing Director at PSG. “We are excited to work alongside the LogicGate team as they continue to expand their product footprint and deliver a comprehensive risk management solution to the marketplace.” The new capital brings LogicGate’s total funding to date to $156 million. The funds aim to fuel all elements of LogicGate’s business, including significant product advancements — notably, a risk quantification solution set to be released later this year — and the expansion of its partner ecosystem, international presence and security posture.  ### View complete press release here.

Agility empowers attendees to prioritize the flexible, automated, adaptable processes driving business outcomes by reimagining risk. Colonel Nicole Malachowski (USAF, retired) will keynote the event, sharing her thoughts on dreaming big, achieving more and stretching the limits of risk. The first woman to fly with the Air Force Thunderbird aerial demonstration team, Malachowski knows about performing under pressure. The decorated USAF veteran and fighter pilot has flown at the speed of sound, advised the first lady, and provided security for Iraq’s 2005 democratic elections.  “It’s no secret risk is a top concern for business leaders today because it evolves so rapidly,” said LogicGate CEO, Matt Kunkel. “At Agility — and through all of our programming — we strive to deliver an engaging community and high-quality education for GRC professionals. That goal includes sharing best practices, recommendations for new technology, tactical information needed to effectively communicate risk organization-wide and a place to inspire, connect and educate. Leaders seeking to educate themselves about risk position themselves and their companies for success. We hope to empower Agility attendees with the insights and practical steps they can use to take their risk programs beyond just asset protection to fuel strategic advantage for their organizations.” Agility 2021 celebrates the risk management professionals responsible for managing existing risks, and future-proofing their organizations’ approach to risk across multiple industries and verticals. 2020 challenged risk professionals to master business continuity and resiliency. 2021 challenges them to reimagine risk as a strategic advantage. Agility exists to offer risk professionals access to best practices, tools and technology, and use cases to architect the most effective GRC programs for their organizations. The two-day event features sessions led by industry experts, innovative networking opportunities, and a first look at advancements to the Risk Cloud platform. Before the event, the LogicGate customer success team will host a full-day power user bootcamp for Risk Cloud power users looking to skill-up with the Risk Cloud and knowledge of GRC.   Event content will be delivered in a variety of session types including keynotes, panels and breakouts. Attendees will have the opportunity to network live and virtually throughout the event.  This announcement follows LogicGate’s recognition for excellence in its product and company culture.

LogicGate Significantly Expands Integrations Suite and Services

Risk Cloud now offers a myriad of options to help customers to achieve synchronicity across systems

CHICAGO – May 6, 2021 – LogicGate, a leading provider of cloud software solutions for automating governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) processes through its Risk Cloud™ platform, has greatly expanded its integrations offerings. Risk Cloud now integrates with hundreds of platforms with the new Risk Cloud Connect offering, which provides customers a suite of pre-built integrations aligned with many of the top GRC use cases as well as managed connectors for specific GRC scenarios. LogicGate has also formed the Integration Services team to enable even more possibilities with customized integrations managed for customers. This flexibility establishes Risk Cloud firmly at the center of their customer’s risk ecosystem. “We’re on a mission to give risk and compliance professionals a single source of truth to make better, more informed decisions with their data,” said LogicGate’s chief product officer, Jon Siegler. “With the automations our integrations deliver, we’re also helping our users spend more of their time and energy working on strategic priorities rather than context switching between applications and manually syncing data. Risk Cloud now works seamlessly with the critical business systems that our users do their work in, like Jira, Slack, ServiceNow, DocuSign and more.” Options for interoperability with Risk Cloud are virtually limitless with these additions to their core integrations approach of their RESTful API, native integrations, and hundreds of Zapier connections to key business platforms. The Integrations Services team understands the value of Risk Cloud fitting into a customer’s tech stack and works side by side with them to leverage Risk Cloud Connect or create custom integrations that fit their exact specifications. This is paramount as a LogicGate 2021 survey on risk management found that 43% of respondents still rely on emails, SharePoint or spreadsheets to manage their risk management programs.  LogicGate’s recent native integrations with Slack and Jira have also expanded their customer’s ability to communicate their risk program details across the enterprise. The Jira integration syncs Jira projects and tickets to Risk Cloud workflows and records, meeting technical teams where they work most.  Ideal for organizations using Slack as their primary method of communication, the integration enables Risk Cloud users to send regular Slack messages and Slack messages on record creation, submissions and due date reminders to individuals or channels within Risk Cloud.  “Our integration with Slack is seamless, so now we’re thinking about how else it can be utilized,” said Bernadette Goellner VP, Information Security and Data Privacy of Uphold Inc. “Because of the vast workflow options with Risk Cloud, it is highly possible that you can fully integrate and fully automate so many other processes. Other teams at Uphold are starting to think about how we can use the integration to pull in information from other channels.” In February 2021, LogicGate announced its investment in strategic alliances, designed to amplify customer value. To learn more about this program, the expanded Risk Cloud, and UpHold’s use of Risk Cloud and Slack to connect teams, visit LogicGate.com.  ### About LogicGate LogicGate is a leading provider of cloud-based solutions for automating governance, risk and compliance (GRC) processes.

LogicGate Invests in Strategic Alliances Program to Accelerate Customer Value

Industry veteran, Joseph Schorr, joins company to lead partner program

CHICAGO – February 23, 2021 – LogicGate, a leading provider of cloud software solutions for automating governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) processes through its Risk Cloud™ platform, today announces they have partnered with Ascent, a provider of AI-based solutions that automate regulatory compliance processes and CastleHill Managed Risk Solutions, a GRC SaaS provider. These initiatives will be led by Joseph Schorr as he joins LogicGate to champion the Strategic Alliance Program to bring even more value to Risk Cloud and LogicGate customers. His appointment comes as LogicGate scales and expands to new markets, including continuing to establish channel relationships, bringing Risk Cloud to managed service providers, systems integrators, and distributors. Schorr has more than 20 years of experience leading strategic business development, and constructing new sales and delivery engagement models. Prior to LogicGate, he served as vice president of global executive services at Optiv. Before Optiv, Schorr amassed his experience in cybersecurity from various roles with organizations including Exodus Intelligence, SecureWorks and HP. Now, as Vice President of Strategic Alliances, he’ll expand and scale LogicGate’s successful channel practice. “The importance of proper governance, risk, and compliance can’t be overstated in today’s business environment,” said Schorr. “LogicGate’s Risk Cloud is the ideal solution for organizations looking to be more risk-intelligent. The partnerships I hope to cultivate on LogicGate’s behalf will advance the company’s mission to be the center of an organization’s GRC ecosystem. The work we're doing with Ascent and CastleHill are two perfect examples of how customers win when we establish strong alliances with complementary providers.” Bringing AI to regulatory compliance with Ascent LogicGate has joined with Ascent to create Risk Cloud's Regulatory Compliance Powered By Ascent Application. This Application will bolster Risk Cloud’s regulatory compliance offerings by leveraging Ascent’s AI-fueled technology that automatically delivers a complete set of obligations targeted to each organization’s needs. This regulatory partnership takes the guessing game and manual work out of a compliance program and reduces the thousands of regulations down to a manageable size, helping risk and compliance professionals narrow their focus to only relevant information. The pre-built application ensures that firms have the right regulatory data automatically populated in Risk Cloud, which they can then operationalize to remain compliant with the law at all times. This ultimately frees up teams to explore new regions, services, or products knowing the organization can evolve with any new regulation. “Our solution is designed to work with platforms like Risk Cloud in a powerful, complementary way,” said Brian Clark, Ascent Founder & President. “Combining Ascent and Risk Cloud is a recipe for success for our heavily regulated clients as it creates a single source of regulatory truth that is both targeted to the customer and always up-to-date. With our combined solution, customers can dramatically reduce their regulatory risks and costs with a flexible, user-friendly platform that is automatically populated with the regulatory information they care about." CastleHill Managed Risk Solutions simplifies regulatory change management  LogicGate has partnered with CastleHill Managed Risk Solutions to help organizations across any vertical and industry navigate the regulatory and compliance landscape. The combination of CastleHill’s expertise and Risk Cloud makes Regulatory Change Management and Regulatory Compliance as efficient and seamless as possible. Powered by the Risk Cloud’s advanced technology architecture and pre-configured solutions and CastleHill’s proprietary methodology. “As we grow Risk Cloud, our partners increase the value we bring to our customers,” said LogicGate CEO, Matt Kunkel. “In heavily regulated industries, regulations change rapidly. It’s more than cumbersome to track changes and map how they apply to an organization and then change processes to adapt to the new regulations. Our innovative Application with Ascent is a game changer for our customers in those heavily regulated industries, saving them time and creating efficiencies.” This announcement follows LogicGate’s announcement of surpassing $40 million in total funding late in 2020.

LogicGate Secures $8.75 Million in Growth Capital, Total Funding Surpasses $40 Million

Investment will fuel international expansion and new product offerings in 2021

CHICAGO – December 15, 2020 – LogicGate, a leading provider of cloud software solutions for automating governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) processes through its Risk Cloud™ platform, today announces it’s secured $8.75 million in growth capital from Greenspring Associates and Silicon Valley Bank. The funding will fuel LogicGate’s growth trajectory as the company revenue grew by more than 100 percent in the past year driven by significant customer demand for the Risk Cloud product. “2020 showed just how important GRC is because of business disruption and exposure to new risks,” said LogicGate CEO Matt Kunkel. “This validates our mission, and I’m more confident in the LogicGate team and our product than ever. We saw some amazing milestones in 2020, like the launch of the LogicGate Power User Certification Program, the Risk Crowd User Community, and our first user conference, Agility. We’re helping more customers turn risk into a strategic advantage, and we’ll continue evangelizing this as LogicGate’s mission through 2021.”   With this latest investment from Greenspring Associates, LogicGate has reached more than $40 million in total funding. This infusion will further LogicGate’s work in its partner and customer advancements in the form of a new GRC ecosystem for customers, partners and prospects to explore all Risk Cloud offerings and create their ideal risk program and the focus on leading the market in risk quantification features. It will also fuel LogicGate’s expansion into European markets. “While compliance is non-negotiable, having a platform for it didn't feel like a priority. Until now,” said Hunter Somerville, at Greenspring Associates. “Organizations are realizing that investing in a GRC platform is essential and that they’re not all archaic. Platforms like the Risk Cloud stand out because they’re flexible enough to be completely custom but also have pre-built content, frameworks and workflows. This combination of approaches to software enables enterprises to work efficiently and supercharge more processes than ever before.”   In 2020, LogicGate made enhancements to the Risk Cloud platform, adding native integrations with Okta, Slack, and Jira to their integrations suite. The company doubled its library of out-of-the-box applications which enable LogicGate customers to implement best-practice GRC processes quickly. These, among other user-interface upgrades and customer success initiatives, led to a 300 percent growth in monthly active users, and a 20 percent increase in average applications used per customer.  Customers aren’t the only ones taking notice of LogicGate’s strides in product development,  In May, LogicGate was awarded “Best Compliance Technology Partner—Small Company” by Compliance Week.  G2 recognized the LogicGate Risk Cloud for three different awards in the Summer 2020 edition of the G2 Grid.  In August, LogicGate was recognized in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Vendor Risk Management Tools.  In October, ChicagoInno recognized LogicGate in it’s 2020 Inno on Fire list. Through a year of intense growth, LogicGate has been able to maintain a superior company culture, receiving a Top Workplaces 2020 honor by The Chicago Tribune. Adding personnel to LogicGate’s team will be vital as the company expands its footprint in Europe. The company plans to add another 100 employees over the next 18 months.

Because, with the right vendor risk strategy in place, organizations can make better decisions in real-time to improve their bottom lines.” With Risk Cloud’s third-party risk management solution, customers are easily able to: Track risks from third-party vendors in real time to better understand exposure points and identify mission-critical vendors  Break down silos with a single source of truth for their organization to assign remediation activities, track mitigations, and integrate with existing procurement or AP systems Cultivate better relationships and improved communication with vendors by automating tasks and keeping consistent records  Implement third-party risk programs with pre-built Applications aligned to widely adopted frameworks or customize to fit their unique processes     “Our most mature program in LogicGate’s Risk Cloud is our vendor risk management program.

CHICAGO – Dec. 17, 2019 – LogicGate, an agile process automation platform enabling organizations to operationalize governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) programs, today announces $24.75 million in new funding. The round includes a combination of equity and venture debt co-led by Jump Capital and High Alpha Capital, with participation from Greenspring Associates and Silicon Valley Bank. This raise brings the total investment in the Chicago Techstars alum to $34 million.  “This funding round is a testament to the continued belief of our investors in the future of LogicGate and what we’re building,” said Matt Kunkel, LogicGate’s CEO. “Combined with Emily Heath’s addition to the board, the investment underscores the fact that the market is ready for a flexible GRC solution that helps risk, compliance and security professionals make strategic, informed choices every day.” LogicGate will use the funds to continue empowering risk and compliance professionals to drive business value with its flexible, easy to use platform. Taking customer feedback into consideration, LogicGate will aggressively invest in initiatives to solve complex risk management challenges more holistically, including investments in content, frameworks, data partnerships and additional integrations “The risk and compliance software market is reaching new heights,” said Emily Heath, LogicGate board member, and Chief Trust and Security Officer at DocuSign. “As risk mitigation strategies trend from reactive to proactive, organizations are looking for the right technology to support a single source of truth across all departments. LogicGate is poised to break through the market as an agile GRC platform that does just that.” Traditionally, risk management has been siloed within departments and managed with spreadsheets and emails, leading to disparate data and an unclear picture of risk across an organization. With LogicGate’s agile approach to GRC, all risk data is housed in a central repository, providing a singular source of truth from which to visualize, customize and automate risk and compliance processes. The no-code platform gives companies the flexibility to scale risk and compliance programs when necessary. “GRC has been stuck in the back office for too long. The next stage of GRC technology demands a flexible approach, where organizations can see real business value and impact across all departments,” said Jump Capital Managing Partner and Co-Founder, Michael McMahon. “That’s why at Jump, we’re doubling down with our investment in LogicGate. As a forward-thinking, agile GRC platform, the potential for its veteran leadership and innovative engineering teams is exponential.” LogicGate launched in 2015, announcing a $1.9 million seed round in December 2016 and a $7.5 million Series A in July 2018. In November 2019, the company announced the addition of 170 jobs by 2021.  For more information on enterprise risk management visit www.logicgate.com.   ### About LogicGate LogicGate is a leading provider of cloud-based governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) solutions for automating enterprise risk management processes.

Most CEOs Say Enterprise Risk Management Programs are Ineffective

“The 2020 State of ERM: A View from the Top” report from LogicGate identifies impending risks and ERM…

CHICAGO - Dec. 10, 2019 - LogicGate, an agile process automation platform enabling organizations to operationalize governance, risk, and compliance programs, announced today the results of its “The 2020 State of ERM: A View from the Top” report. The report, which discusses the results of a survey of 100 CEOs across industries on their understanding of enterprise risk management (ERM) and their current ERM programs, found more than half of CEOs think their ERM program is not as effective as it should be. With companies experiencing an increase in risks and data breaches, it’s no surprise the report uncovered that 88% of CEOs think ERM is very or extremely important. However, while most companies have an ERM program in place, there’s little agreement as to what a successful program really looks like in practice, beyond the baseline features. Fortunately, CEOs are beginning to understand the need for their involvement in their company’s ERM program with 66% wanting more involvement. “It’s not a matter of if your company will face risk, it’s a matter of when, and which risks. Every business faces risks, and without a strategy in place, you are setting your company up for failure,” said Matt Kunkel, CEO, LogicGate. “For CEOs to become more involved with ERM, they must integrate ERM in their business decision-making process and create a culture of risk. The responsibility of ERM does not fall only on the IT or compliance departments, it involves every employee and every department.”  The CEOs surveyed echo this sentiment, asserting a clear desire for increased visibility into risks and a quantifiable methodology for tracking and evaluating them. Several CEOs lamented the “labor-intensive” process in their organizations and voiced a need for a “better understanding of what it’s costing us to mitigate risk.” They also recognize a need for “regimented” and “streamlined” methods of factoring risk into their overall business strategies.    Looking ahead to the rest of 2019 and 2020, CEOs are most concerned with risks in three categories: Strategic, Operational, and Macroeconomic risks.  1 in 3 CEOs see Strategic Risk as the “Biggest Potential Risk Concern.” Among Strategic Risks, risk arising from key business partners is most frequently ranked first.  1 in 3 CEOs are most concerned about Operational Risk. In this category, cybersecurity is the top concern due to the increase in cyber threats. Finally, of the CEOs most worried about macroeconomic trends, 1 in 4 are most worried about the threat of a recession. Global political instability was close behind.  Other key takeaways from the report include:  CEOs at smaller firms are significantly less satisfied with their ERM programs, with 1 in 3 finding them not very or not at all effective. CEOs are the least satisfied with the ongoing monitoring of ERM, particularly firms with <$250M in terms of having risk KRIs tracked by a central team. About 3 in 4 CEOs rate their risk identification favorably, although fewer CEOs in the core industries of financial services, healthcare, and technology, media, and telecom report cross-functional team involvement. Information security leads ERM for 3 out of 10 CEOs, followed by finance, risk, and the board of directors.  Most CEOs meet with their ERM leader at least weekly, or daily in larger firms. Data for this study was gathered by LogicGate through an online survey obtaining quantitative and qualitative responses. Survey respondents were screened for the type of business, annual revenue, and employee size.

LogicGate Hosts CodeDay 2019

CodeDay inspires youth interest in coding and computer science, particularly among students from backgrounds underrepresented in STEM careers.

On November 9 and 10, LogicGate hosted 70 students for an overnight hackathon as part of SRND CodeDay 2019. LogicGate employees welcomed the young coders into their corporate home and served as volunteer mentors and judges. SRND, short for Student Research and Development, hosts CodeDay to inspire youth interest in coding and computer science, particularly among students from backgrounds underrepresented in STEM careers. Each event encourages creativity, teamwork, and fun as small groups of young people ages 12–25 solve coding challenges over the course of 24 hours. Participants include both novices and experts, and SRND reports that 80% of beginners continue to pursue computer programming after the event. Students pitched ideas for apps or games they want to build, then spent the next 24 hours bringing their ideas to life. At the start of the event on Saturday morning, novices attended a beginner workshop before diving into their projects, while intermediate and advanced-level participants got to work right away.  Mentor Duties All groups were paired with a dedicated LogicGate mentor who provided project feedback and guidance—as well as the occasional nudge to get groups thinking creatively. Mentors challenged groups to use a specific programming language or technology during a dedicated lab period. For example, if a team wants to make a game with Unity, mentors might introduce a python framework instead. This portion of the event encouraged participants to learn a new technology or try out a novel approach, though each group is free to use whatever tools it likes once the lab period is over.  "The level of maturity demonstrated in many of the projects for this competition was impressive,” said Mark Lello, Software Engineer at LogicGate. “Seeing young people come together to ideate, design, and develop solutions which help impact society for better social good and awareness was something I was proud to see from Chicago's young tech community." On top of group leadership duties, LogicGate’s employees ran workshops and offered skills coaching to help the students to round out their skill sets. In the Networking session, some of the older students learned about STEM career paths and professional etiquette. In the Project Management session, LogicGate mentors taught students how to set goals and achieve milestones.  The Winners Are… At the conclusion of the event on Sunday, students shook off sleepiness and presented their final projects. LogicGate judges met each of the teams, tried out their projects, and ultimately declared a winner. The “Best in Show” top prize was awarded to a group whose app automatically splits large files, and “Best Game” went to a group who coded a game to work on a scientific calculator. Other notable entrants included a message encryption service, a chat bot to help kids at risk of depression, and a social experiment designed to warn of the dangers of giving up passwords. All participants came away from the event knowing something they didn’t know before. Including the mentors. “I am learning a lot from these students,” said LogicGate Director of Customer Success Szuyin Leow. “I am not an expert in gaming or coding, so it’s exciting to ask questions and gain as much knowledge from them as I hope I’m providing.”To see examples of past projects, visit the project showcase at showcase.srnd.org.

LogicGate Expands Executive Leadership Team with CMO, Board Member

GRC process automation software company welcomes veteran marketer Gina Hortatsos and new board member Emily Heath

CHICAGO – October 15, 2019 – LogicGate, an agile process automation platform enabling organizations to operationalize governance, risk, and compliance programs, announces the addition of two new leaders to its team. Gina Hortatsos joins the company as Chief Marketing Officer while Emily Heath, most recently United Airlines’ Chief Information Security Officer, has been named to the board of directors. Both additions will bolster LogicGate’s position as a marketing-leading GRC solution. As CMO, Hortatsos will be responsible for demand creation, corporate communications and branding, product marketing, and customer marketing.  An experienced revenue marketing leader, she comes to LogicGate after serving as Vice President of Marketing at FourKites, Inc., the leader in predictive supply chain visibility, where she scaled and optimized the marketing function. Prior to FourKites, Inc., Hortatsos led the global marketing, operations, and strategy teams at Hyland, a leading content services technology provider. She has also held senior marketing leadership positions at SAP, where she led demand creation programs for the company’s Business Analytics and GRC businesses, Oracle, and Hyperion. “Now more than ever, companies need solutions that keep them in compliance with regulations and protect against the myriad risks and threats they face every day,” Hortatsos says. “LogicGate is a game-changer for our customers, and I am excited by the tremendous opportunity to help more companies achieve their objectives.”   In addition to the hiring of Hortatsos, LogicGate also appointed security veteran Emily Heath to the board of directors. In her roles as Security Chief for major global organizations like United Airlines and AECOM, Emily has been responsible for the strategic direction and execution of security programs and initiatives across large and complex global footprints. As a board member of the Security Advisor Alliance and National Technology Security Coalition, Heath’s experience will bring new insights and fresh perspectives to LogicGate’s board of directors. "I couldn't be more excited to join the LogicGate board and help shape the vision for the company's future,” Heath says. “As someone who has been immersed in the security space, I know the market is overdue for flexible software that can help companies stay ahead of the expanding volume and types of security risks. LogicGate is poised to be that missing piece." “Both Gina and Emily are critical hires that will help LogicGate continue to deliver on our mission of empowering risk, compliance, and security professionals with easy-to-use, flexible enterprise software,” says Matt Kunkel, LogicGate’s CEO and co-founder.  “Gina's experience in leading innovative, high-performing Marketing teams, coupled with her track record of delivering real results for brand awareness and demand, make her the perfect addition to the LogicGate leadership team. Her leadership will be instrumental in establishing LogicGate as the partner of choice for companies in solving their GRC issues. Meanwhile, Emily’s experience leading security programs at Fortune 100 companies provides us unprecedented insight into the daily challenges of risk, compliance, and security professionals. Having this type of knowledge on our team will help us continue to build a product that solves an organization's most pressing GRC hurdles.”  This news follows the announcement of the company’s new Dashboard Reports product at the 2019 RSA Conference.

LogicGate Continues Partnership with Beyond Sports Foundation to Support Chicagoland Youth

Chicago's GRC Leader Giving Back to Area Youth

HIGHLAND PARK, IL (June 5, 2019) – LogicGate, a leading Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) process automation platform, will continue its relationship with Beyond Sports Foundation, an organization that services underprivileged youth in Chicago through athletic training, academic tutoring, and professional skills development. As part of the relationship, LogicGate holds career-focused workshops with Beyond Sports student-athletes to educate them on opportunities they can pursue beyond sports after their playing careers are over. “It was great to see such a motivated group of high school athletes take time out of their weekend to learn about digital literacy and jobs in technology,” said Szuyin Leow, manager of customer success for LogicGate. “The students seemed to really enjoy the activity we did around conceptualizing a new mobile app, and it helped them understand how there are many skills beyond just coding that are critical in STEM careers. Ultimately, we wanted to help them understand that there are multiple different types of technology-related jobs in the sports industry and beyond, and that many of the experiences they've gained through sports can be applied in those careers.” Fewer than 2 percent of NCAA student-athletes go on to be professional athletes. As a young athlete, it is vital to prepare for a career that is not associated with playing professionally, and understand the best way to employ one’s strengths off the playing court or field. “Our student-athletes are incredibly talented in each of their respective sports,” says Alec Brown, executive director of Beyond Sports. “It’s our job to help them learn more about their identity outside of athletics, and equip them with the tools and experiences they need for lifelong success. LogicGate has played a vital role in achieving that.” In addition to career workshops, LogicGate provides student-athletes the opportunity to conduct mock interviews and empower themselves by enhancing their digital literacy. The organization also gives back to local nonprofits in the city of Chicago by providing skills, professional development, and career coaching. About LogicGate Headquartered in Chicago, LogicGate is a leading GRC process automation platform enabling organizations to centralize their governance, risk, and compliance programs. The agile and highly configurable self-service platform allows organizations to operationalize mission-critical risk and compliance activities without support from consultants or corporate IT. For more information, visit logicgate.com or follow us on Twitter at @LogicGate. About Beyond Sports Foundation Beyond Sports Foundation uses the power of sport to transform lives by turning athletic opportunity into life opportunity. As a pioneer among college access and success programs, Beyond Sports Foundation is one of a kind in offering support for student-athletes to strengthen their academic, life, and career skills while paralleling their athletic training in order to prepare them for college and beyond through our four pillars of engagement. These include academic development, athletic development, social responsibility, and professional development & mentorship. Beyond Sports Foundation believes that by investing in student-athletes within our communities we are creating the leaders of the future. ### Media Contact: Katherine Kanner KemperLesnik [email protected]

LogicGate Showcases Agile GRC Platform at 2019 RSA Conference

Startup debuts new Dashboard Reports for comprehensive visual analysis of risk and compliance activities.

SAN FRANCISCO – March 4, 2019 – LogicGate, an agile process automation platform for governance, risk, and compliance, today announces attendance at the 2019 RSA Conference. At the show, LogicGate will show how businesses in regulated industries like healthcare and financial services can operationalize risk management practices. The company also plans to unveil its new Dashboard Reports product for current customers. Debuting for the first time, Dashboard Reports allow users to compile various visual analytics into a single location, offering a quick, comprehensive snapshot of the metrics that matter most to an organization’s risk and compliance program. This feature also allows clients to evaluate GRC programs on a consistent basis, enabling quick process changes as needed. “On the heels of GDPR, security and compliance are mandated top priorities for all enterprise organizations,” said CEO of LogicGate, Matt Kunkel. “And it’s not just obvious industries like finance and healthcare that are being scrutinized to ensure compliance. More than ever, all companies are tech companies, charged with protecting sensitive customer data and other intelligence. This is why the GRC space, previously vastly underserved, is ripe for disruption.” LogicGate’s agile GRC process automation platform, an alternative to historically inflexible legacy solutions, enables businesses to easily configure automated workflows to address critical risk issues including, but not limited to, enterprise risk management, information security risk, third-party risk management, GDPR compliance, and regulatory compliance. Its self-service platform allows employees with little to no knowledge of coding to configure business processes, eliminating an organization’s reliance on spreadsheets and emails. LogicGate is located in the South Hall section of the Moscone Center at RSA — booth #1968. This announcement follows the addition of both a CFO and CRO to the LogicGate team in January.

LogicGate Announces Record Revenue Growth, Adds CFO and CRO to Executive Team

GRC process automation platform doubles revenue, adds experienced technology executives Kevin Jacobson and Karry Kleeman to C-Suite.

CHICAGO – January 8, 2019 – LogicGate, an agile process automation platform for governance, risk, and compliance, today announces significant company growth in 2018, new additions to the leadership team, and plans to hire in 2019. During Q4, LogicGate welcomed two new executives to its senior leadership team: Kevin Jacobson, as Chief Financial Officer, and Karry Kleeman, as Chief Revenue Officer. In his new role as CFO, Jacobson will guide LogicGate’s financial strategy and business operations. Prior to LogicGate, Jacobson was the CFO at Kapow, an industry-leading corporate events platform. Kapow was acquired by Cvent, the world’s leading corporate event software provider and a portfolio company of Vista Equity Partners, in June 2018. Prior to Kapow, Jacobson spent time in technology investing at Summit Partners and technology investment banking at William Blair. As CRO, Kleeman is tasked with driving top-line growth for the company by further developing and refining the sales strategy. Previously, Kleeman was the CRO at SpringCM, a global leader in Cloud Contract and Document Management Solutions. During his time at SpringCM, Kleeman helped guide the company to its acquisition by DocuSign in September 2018. “LogicGate is taking a path counter to many – it’s not ‘unicorn or bust’ for us. We are building a high-growth company in an important market that our customers, investors, and employees can all be proud of,” said Jacobson. “And with the team’s passion, drive, and dedication, in addition to outstanding investors like Jeff Weiner [LinkedIn CEO], we have what we need to execute on our vision of becoming the industry’s leading GRC platform.” In 2018, LogicGate more than doubled its team size and increased revenue by over 175 percent. The company also increased its customer roster by more than 150 percent. LogicGate’s dominance in the market is reinforced by its inclusion in the Forrester New WaveTM: GDPR And Privacy Management Software, Q4 2018. With aspirations to grow in 2019, the company is currently looking for more salespeople, engineers, and marketing staff to join the team. “Businesses are demanding consumer-grade solutions to solve their risk management problems,” said Kleemen. “Given current demand, the GRC space is an extremely active marketplace, making it an exciting time for LogicGate. Over the next year, I am committed to helping build the LogicGate team with the ultimate goal of becoming the world’s leading GRC platform.” This announcement follows LogicGate’s $7.5 million Series A round in July.
