Ray Security, an Israeli startup, exited stealth with an $11 million seed funding round. Venture Guides and Ibex Investors co-led the investment. The company develops an AI data security platform designed for enterprises.
The platform proactively secures all enterprise data. It monitors usage patterns, learns data requirements, and predicts future access. This enables the system to apply dynamic protection before risks emerge, automating real-time detection and response. Traditional data security tools, like those offered by Forcepoint, often treat all data uniformly, leading to excessive alerts and prolonged exposure.
Advancing Predictive Data Protection
Ray Security continuously analyzes data access across users, systems, artificial intelligence agents, and environments. The platform accurately predicts business data needs, facilitating proactive and adaptive controls. This approach significantly reduces risk, lowers costs, and streamlines security operations. It also automatically blocks threats as they appear.
The $11 million funding will accelerate product development and expand go-to-market efforts in the United States. Ray Security already serves dozens of customers, including Fortune 500 enterprises. These clients operate in highly regulated sectors like finance, healthcare, and technology, demonstrating the platform's impact.
Protected by over 10 pending patents, Ray Security's technology integrates with all data repositories, including cloud computing platforms and on-premises systems. This provides comprehensive coverage across hybrid environments. Founded in 2024 by Israeli cybersecurity veterans Ariel Zamir, Eric Wolf, and Dekel Levkovich, the team brings extensive experience. Their expertise spans cybersecurity, data systems, and AI.
Ray Security aims to transform data protection from reactive defense to intelligent prevention, differentiating itself from broader cloud security solutions like Wiz.
