Jaipur : Customer identity and access management company LoginRadius on Tuesday said it would strengthen its research and development (R&D) and business operations team in India by hiring around 200 people in the country by 2020.

The Vancouver, Canada-headquartered company also has offices in Britain (London), US (San Francisco), Australia (Sydney) and India (Jaipur).

LoginRadius said it received a $17-million "Series A" funding led by ForgePoint Capital and Microsoft's venture fund, M12.
