Application security testing solution provider NightVision has received fresh allocations that amount to just under $5.5 million, QA Financial has been told.
The US-based QA software firm, which was only founded two years ago, confirmed fresh commitments came from a range of different, mostly US-based investors.
NightVision, which focuses on technology tools in the application security testing sector with a particular focus on financial institutions, is a relative newcomer in the market.
The firm has been gaining momentum by helping companies and developers to identify software flaws and vulnerabilities, particularly at an early stage in the development cycle.
“The application security testing industry has been unable to keep up with the rapid pace of development.”

NightVision CTO and co-founder Kinnaird McQuade said the firm is experiencing a healthy appetite for its testing solutions.
“In recent years, there’s been an explosion of custom applications, APIs, and micro-services, but the application security testing industry has been unable to keep up with the rapid pace of development,” McQuade explained.
“Especially now that developers are building faster with AI-assisted solutions, this has to change, now more than ever,” he stated.
McQuade stressed that NightVision’s tech capabilities can simulate different attacks and scenarios that help firms to detect and spot flaws and defects in their software, even before they show up in the production and integration phase.
He pointed out that the software allows developers to scan codes, pick up on flaws, and get highlights of the flawed lines of code with a streamlined process that leads to secure development.
The product also lets customers scan apps on public and private networks, and can discover undocumented APIs through modern greybox crawling.
