Armorize captures funds for application security

Armorize, maker of software that defends web applications from external malware attacks, has raised an undisclosed second round of funding from Ambient Sound Investments (run by the founders of Skype Technologies), Birch Venture Capital and several previous investors, reports VentureWire.

Based in Santa Clara, Calif., the company’s product continually scans systems and source code looking for disruptions. In particular, it is on the lookout for code insertions that snag private information. No further funding history has been specified.
