Founded in 2019, Metabase Q offers a cybersecurity platform that helps organizations gain control over security complexity and proactivel reduce risk. The company’s Batuta platform integrates cybersecurity and IT operations to provide organizations with centralized management of endpoint devices.
The platform allows companies to monitor and mitigate risks to ensure their cybersecurity tool are effectively deployed and maintained. The Batuta platform is used by enterprises to improve operational efficiency, cut costs and enhance protection across their entire network, including subsidiaries and acquired entities.
The key to Metabase Q’s offering is proactive security with the aim of reducing the probability of cyberattacks while speeding up response times. Features of the company’s platform include capabilities such as patch management, control over cybersecurity tools and real-time visibility of security posture. The service is also able to help identify unused licenses and optimize existing technology to provide organizations with the ability to consolidate cybersecurity measures efficiently.
The new addition to the Batuta platform announced today, ZeroAPT Mitigator, is designed to enhance protection for Windows and Linux systems against advanced persistent threats by proactive hardening systems based on the latest malicious techniques used by active APTs.

The new service aligns with Metabase Q’s focus on proactive security by reducing the probability of attacks while ensuring rapid recovery if incidents do occur.
The $11 million in new funding, a Series A extension round, was led by SYN Ventures, who also led the initial Series A round, with John Watters, former president and chief operating officer of Mandiant, also participating.
“Despite increased security spending, many fundamentals are still missing,” said Jay Leek, managing partner at SYN Ventures. “Metabase Q addresses these challenges with Batuta, offering unparalleled visibility, control and cybersecurity certainty.”
Including the new funding, Metabase Q has raised approximately $23.5 million to date, according to data from Tracxn.
