VSS Monitoring, a provider of distributed traffic capturing solutions, today announced it has landed its first institutional round of financing from Battery Ventures, to the tune of $20 million.

Monitoring and securing networks is an increasingly complicated task for IT managers, and VSS Monitoring is banking on what they refer to as distributed traffic capture to address these challenges.

Through its distributed architecture and technologies such as vAssure, vStack+, vSlice and protocol stripping, the company’s Distributed Traffic Capture Systems aim to provide clients with a solid platform for centralized monitoring, tool optimization, and scalability for the network monitoring and security infrastructure.

Neeraj Agrawal, Battery Ventures General Partner and Alex Benik, a Principal at the firm, will both assume seats on VSS Monitoring’s board.
