We are rapidly entering a new era of enterprise technology.
AI agents have become the new digital workforce - and they’re no longer just passive chatbots or simple productivity assistants that answer our questions. They’re evolving into autonomous systems capable of making independent decisions, executing complex workflows, and accessing our most critical enterprise systems.
As enterprises rush to deploy these agents to access CRMs, process financial data, and run operations, a massive security gap has emerged. We call it the visibility illusion. Organizations might know that an AI agent exists or is connected to a specific system, yet they lack a clear understanding of what that agent is actually doing, what permissions it is leveraging, or when its seemingly legitimate behavior becomes a critical security risk.
You simply cannot secure a machine that thinks and operates differently from a human using security tools designed to monitor humans interacting with machines.
Today, I am thrilled to announce that Arrakis Security is officially stepping out of stealth to introduce the world's first Behavioral Governance platform designed specifically for the AI era.
The Shift from Access to Behavior
Alongside my co-founders, Omer Efrat and Ron Shani, we spent years at Torq and Palantir building enterprise automation platforms, AI SOC solutions, and data infrastructure for massive organizations. Through that experience, we realized a fundamental truth: existing security tools were never built to understand or control autonomous AI agent behavior.
The security challenge of the next decade is no longer just who has access to enterprise systems, but which autonomous AI agents are operating inside them, what decisions they are making, and whether they can be trusted.
Instead of merely protecting an agent’s point of access, Arrakis secures the agent’s behavior and activities across your entire ecosystem—including SaaS platforms, cloud infrastructure, and core business workflows.
Our platform empowers organizations to:
- Discover & Inventory: Gain complete visibility into every AI agent operating across your environments.
- Profile Behavior: Build dynamic, AI-driven behavioral profiles for each non-human agent to understand context and permissions.
- Monitor in Real-Time: Continuously compare agent actions against organizational security policies.
- Detect & Respond: Instantly block anomalous or risky activities—such as data exfiltration, unauthorized service activation, or privilege abuse—before they become costly incidents.
Staying Ahead of Emerging Threats with Arrakis Labs
To ensure our platform remains ahead of the curve, we are also officially launching Arrakis Labs.
Composed of former Microsoft security researchers and veterans from elite military technology units, this dedicated research arm continuously maps out the frontier of AI security. The Labs team develops detection capabilities that cover hundreds of vulnerabilities, attack techniques, and behavioral patterns that are completely unique to AI agents. These insights are continuously fed directly into our platform, ensuring our customers are protected from zero-day AI threats in real time.
Fueling Our Mission: $8M Seed Round and Industry Backing
To accelerate our mission of securing the autonomous enterprise, we are proud to announce the completion of an $8 million seed funding round led by Hetz Ventures.
As Pavel Livshiz, General Partner at Hetz Ventures, noted, the security layer surrounding AI agents is still in its infancy, and organizations need a way to govern these systems without slowing down AI adoption.
We are deeply honored to be backed by Hetz and a syndicate of top-tier cybersecurity and AI leaders who intimately understand this problem space, including: Mati Staniszewski, CEO of ElevenLabs, Ofer Smadari, CEO of Torq, Amitai Ratzzon, CEO of Pentera, and Several senior executives from Palantir.
What’s Next? Join the Mission
With this new capital, we are rapidly expanding our R&D and product teams in Israel, strengthening our platform’s detection and response capabilities, and accelerating deployments for enterprise organizations adopting AI agents at scale.
We are a team of 20 builders, researchers, and security veterans, and we are just getting started. If you are passionate about defining the future of AI security and want to solve some of the most complex engineering challenges of our time, we are hiring.
The autonomous enterprise is here. It is time to secure it.
