Israeli Startup MIND Raises $72 Million to Secure Enterprise AI Agents
Israeli startup MIND has raised $72 million in a Series B round led by Crosspoint Capital Partners to expand its AI data security and leak prevention platform.
Israeli startup MIND has developed a security platform designed to prevent data exposure, leakage, and loss within organizations, particularly addressing the risks introduced by autonomous AI agents. Founded in 2023 by Eran Barak, Itai Schwartz, and Hod Ben-Nun, the company has quickly gained traction by offering a unified solution that classifies data at rest, in transit, and in use.
Rapid Integration and Endpoint Protection
The MIND platform can connect to an organization's data sources within minutes, scanning information based on business context and specific risk profiles. By utilizing an endpoint agent, the system actively remediates and prevents potential leaks across various environments, including SaaS platforms, AI systems, local servers, endpoints, and email.
"AI accelerates the problem, giving people and autonomous systems new ways to access and move sensitive data at unprecedented speeds," said CEO Eran Barak. "At the same time, it gives us the technology to reinvent how we protect that information."
Significant Funding and Market Growth
Reflecting the growing enterprise concern over autonomous agent security, MIND recently announced a $72 million Series B funding round. Led by Crosspoint Capital Partners with participation from existing investors YL Ventures and Paladin Capital Group, the fresh capital will support the company's continued expansion in the cybersecurity and AI data protection sector.
