CAMBRIDGE — Cyber-security firm eSentire Inc. has raised $14 million in a new round of funding and will immediately begin hiring 40 employees for its research facility in Cambridge.
Chief executive officer J. Paul Haynes said the investment will help the Cambridge-based company expand into new sectors, such as critical infrastructure, technology and bio-pharma.
"That is a tall order, we never had to hire so many technologists all at once," Haynes said. "So it is going to be a challenge for us. The skills we require are security specific."
