Company overview. LookingGlass Cyber Solutions, Inc. (commonly "LookingGlass") is a cybersecurity software company headquartered in Reston, Virginia. Founded in 2008–2009, it was a venture-backed private company that raised roughly $114 million before being acquired by ZeroFox Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZFOX) in April 2023 for approximately $26 million in a mix of stock, cash, and convertible debt (reported up to ~$41 million including earn-outs and assumed liabilities). It now operates as part of ZeroFox's external cybersecurity portfolio. Public sources place its headcount at roughly 50–150 employees around the acquisition; revenue figures are not publicly disclosed.
Products / operations. LookingGlass sells threat-intelligence-driven security products for enterprises and government agencies, focused on external attack surface management. Its flagship platform, scoutPRIME, aggregates and normalizes roughly 88 threat-intelligence feeds to map an organization's internet-facing assets (IPs, domains, CIDRs, ASNs), scores threats using a proprietary "Threat Indicator Confidence" (TIC) system, and monitors third-party/supply-chain risk. Related offerings included scoutTHREAT. The company also built an intelligence data lake and acquired Cyveillance (2015) and CloudShield; ZeroFox had previously bought the Cyveillance business unit in 2020.
Patent-litigation posture. LookingGlass is an operating company, not an NPE: its tracked docket shows 1 case as defendant and 0 as plaintiff. The sole tracked case, Centripetal Networks, Inc. v. LookingGlass Cyber Solutions, Inc. et al. (filed Sept. 14, 2021), was brought by fellow cybersecurity firm Centripetal Networks in the Eastern District of Virginia (Alexandria Division) and transferred to the Richmond Division — a notable venue because Centripetal won a roughly $1.9 billion damages award against Cisco in that same district in 2020.
Notable case context. The Centripetal complaint asserted patent infringement of U.S. Patent 10,785,266, plus breach of contract and fiduciary-duty claims, and named co-defendants including then-CEO Gilman Louie and Alsop Louie investment entities. No settlement or judgment details are confirmed in available public records.
