Odaily Planet Daily reports: Israeli AI security startup Zenity has completed a $125 million Series C funding round, betting on the new security risks arising from enterprise deployment of AI agents. The round was led by Norwest Venture Partners, with participation from SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Hitachi Ventures, and LG Technology Ventures.
Zenity’s core product monitors AI agents’ actions in enterprise environments in real time, determining whether their behavior deviates from predefined objectives, and blocks or adjusts actions that may compromise enterprise data, customer assets, or system security. Ben Kliger, co-founder and CEO of Zenity, said that AI security previously focused primarily on the models themselves and user prompts, but as AI agents begin to autonomously execute tasks, make decisions, and connect to enterprise systems, the focus of security is shifting toward “the behavior of the agents themselves.” (Fortune)
