Lookout (company)
Lookout (previously known as Flexilis) is a San Francisco-based mobile security company. It provides security to both private and business mobile devices.
==Company overview==
Lookout is a mobile security firm started by recent graduates of the University of Southern California. The original name of the company was Flexilis. In 2005, the firm showed the vulnerabilities of smartphones to hacking via Bluetooth, in addition to other problems in mobile security. In 2009 Khosla Ventures provided $5.5 million in funding to the company as it began developing mobile security software. The programs were initially tested on Android and Windows devices, before expanding to Blackberry and iPhone devices. The software was intended to protect mobile devices from malicious programs, as well as allowing users to back up and delete data from their devices. The co-founders of Flexilis and Lookout are John Hering, who serves as Lookout's executive chairman, James Burgess, and Kevin Mahaffey.〔 The principal research analyst for the company until 2014 was Marc Rogers. Jim Dolce serves as the company's CEO.〔http://www.cnbc.com/id/101492383〕
Lookout was in use by about ten million devices within a year and a half after its official launch in 2009. As of late 2013, the company had raised $131 million in venture capital and was valued at about $1 billion. Previous investors include Andreessen Horowitz, Khosla Ventures, Accel Partners, Deutsche Telekom, and Index Ventures.〔http://techcrunch.com/2011/09/21/andreessen-horowitz-leads-40m-round-in-smartphone-security-company-lookout/〕〔http://techcrunch.com/2013/10/10/mobile-security-app-lookout-takes-another-55m-led-by-deutsche-telekom-to-expand-in-europe-enterprise/〕 The user base for Lookout security software was about 45 million users as of October 2013. This was about three times the downloads of other companies producing mobile security software and included pre-loads from telecom carriers like Sprint, Orange Mobile, and T-Mobile.
In August 2014 the company raised $150 million〔http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/08/13/big-funds-bet-150-million-on-mobile-security-startup-lookout/〕 in series F financing. This brought the total of financing Lookout has received is $280 million.〔http://fortune.com/2014/08/13/lookout-a-mobile-security-software-company-raises-150-million/〕 In October the company signed a partnership agreement with KDDI in Japan.〔http://www.telecompaper.com/news/lookout-kddi-deliver-device-security-services-for-au-users--1041088〕 In November of that year they hired Aaron Cockerill as VP of Enterprise Product and David Helfer as VP of Worldwide Channel Development.〔http://www.forbes.com/sites/benkepes/2014/11/14/lookout-hires-up-to-ramp-up-its-mobile-security-solution/〕 That month the company released the first evidence of malware and spam in Android smart phones, encountering the NotCompatible malicious software in 2012, and showed that at least four million mobile users may have encountered it since.〔http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/11/20/malicious-software-said-to-spread-on-android-phones/?_r=1〕 In 2014 the company was also the first to detect the MalApp.D, a VoIP software-based malware.〔
