Keating Capital Backs LifeLock

Greenwood Village, Colorad-based Keating Capital, the venture investor which has the unique position of being publicly traded, reported that it invested $5M, in the recent $100M Series E funding round for LifeLock. Keating reported that the investment is its largest investment to date, and that the investment is its second in 2012. Keating joined Bessemer Venture Partners, Goldman, Sachs & Co., Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, and Symantec Corporation, among others, in the giant financing. That funding is being used by LifeLock in its acquisition of identity and risk management technology developer ID Analytics.
