Nominum Raises $10 Million for its IP Address Management Software

Nominum, a start-up based in Redwood City, California, closed a $10 million round of series C financing to support its IP address infrastructure software. Nominum's software suite can be used to manage IP addressing throughout corporate networks. The company also recently launched a DNS-specific intrusion prevention appliance that blocks attacks on widespread vulnerabilities in business applications running on UNIX systems. The new funding was led by Globespan Capital Partners (formerly JAFCO Ventures) with participation from Nominum's existing investors Bessemer Venture Partners and Morgenthaler Ventures, and new investor Silicon Valley BancVentures. The new funds bring the total equity investment in Nominum to $26 million.
