Kertos secures 4 million seed round

The Munich-based startup Kertos has secured an investment of 4 million euros in a new seed financing round for its data protection and compliance automation. The round was led by Redstone/VR Ventures.

Kertos has developed a data protection and compliance product that automates operational business processes and thus plays a role in the next generation of European data protection technologies. With the no-code integration of systems and automated data protection workflows, Kertos closes the gap between legal data protection regulations and their operational implementation.

With its innovative no-code solution, Kertos ensures seamless implementation of global data protection and compliance regulations and implements processes with minimal personnel costs

With its technology, Kertos ensures that internal and external regulations are adhered to in real time and that compliance management runs on autopilot. The program combines all data protection-related compliance processes on a single platform. It structures and manages internal company data protection processes and creates automated compliance reports. The system is integrated via API interfaces, giving customers full control over compliance management at the same time.

The fresh capital will enable the startup to further develop and expand its data protection and compliance automation. The additional funds will be invested in the development of the technology platform. The company also plans to enter into new partnerships and collaborations in the coming months in order to expand its influence in the industry. Kertos supports companies in implementing increasingly complex data protection and compliance requirements.
