Aug 27 : Identity verification startup Socure said on Thursday it had secured a strategic growth investment, which valued the company at $5.2 billion, and acquired agentic operations platform Fravity.

The investment comes as businesses seek advanced tools to counter increasingly sophisticated fraud and automate compliance work that is still largely performed manually.

Here are some details:

• The investment, which included primary funding and a secondary tender offer for employees, was led by Summit Partners with participation from Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Wells Fargo, DocuSign and other investors.
