Cybersecurity startup Realm.Security Inc. has secured $15 million in a Series A funding round to accelerate its mission of transforming how enterprises manage security data. The round, led by Jump Capital with participation from Glasswing Ventures and Accomplice VC, will fuel product development and market expansion for the company’s AI-native security data pipeline.
Enterprises today are grappling with a dual crisis in their Security Operations Centers (SOCs): an overwhelming flood of data and the exorbitant costs associated with ingesting it into Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems. Legacy data pipelines often act as simple conduits, indiscriminately forwarding raw logs and telemetry. This practice buries security analysts in irrelevant noise, slows down threat investigation, and inflates budgets tied to usage-based SIEM pricing. According to a recent SANS SOC Survey, a staggering 42% of security teams dump all incoming data directly into a SIEM, often without a clear strategy for management or analysis, exacerbating the problem.
An AI-Native Approach to Data Triage
Realm.Security challenges this inefficient paradigm by fundamentally re-architecting the data pipeline. Instead of a passive data shuttle, its platform acts as an intelligent, AI-powered gatekeeper. By embedding artificial intelligence throughout the pipeline, the system performs real-time analysis, filtering, normalization, and enrichment on data *before* it ever reaches its destination. This ensures that SOCs and SIEMs only receive clean, structured, and high-fidelity data that is genuinely relevant for threat detection and response. The platform provides a single point of ingestion, allowing security teams to route, suppress, and enrich data from all sources while avoiding vendor lock-in. CEO Pete Martin emphasized that this approach solves the data complexity problem at its root, providing CISOs with trustworthy data that is both efficient and radically more cost-effective. This strategic filtering not only accelerates investigations but also delivers measurable savings, giving organizations powerful control over their security budgets and infrastructure. The new funding validates this vision, positioning Realm as a foundational layer for the next generation of AI-driven security operations.
