Ossprey, a software supply chain security company helping organisations stop malicious code before it reaches production environments, has raised £2 million in pre-seed funding.

The London firm said this marks one of top three pre-seed investments in history for a UK cyber company.

The oversubscribed funding round was led by Episode 1 Ventures, with participation from Osney Capital and Octopus Ventures. It will accelerate product development, expand its engineering and commercial teams and support international growth.
