利用智能体应对AI驱动的网络攻击激增的网络安全初创公司Mave已筹集3400万美元融资。这家总部位于以色列的初创公司表示,其AI智能体能整合企业现有安全系统的信息、调查警报、过滤误报,并执行人工团队批准的操作。“安全运营是任何组织的最后一道防线,”联合创始人兼首席执行官Raziel Oren表示,并将其比作监控大楼实时监控录像的物理安保人员。“这套体系从内部来说真的已经崩溃了。那里的解决方案根基根本跟不上新出现威胁的相关步伐。”
Mave, a cybersecurity startup that uses agents to counter the rise in AI-powered cyberattacks, has raised $34 million in funding. The Israel-based startup says its AI agents pull together information from a company's existing security systems, investigate alerts, filter out false alarms, and take actions approved by human teams. "Security operations is the last gate in any organization," cofounder and CEO Raziel Oren said, comparing it to the physical security guards who monitor a building's live camera footage. "This thing is really broken from the inside.
AI以令人眩晕的速度改变了网络威胁。攻击发生的速度更快、规模更大,Oren预测,由智能体驱动的安全事件将呈“指数级”增长。Mave表示,其自身的智能体帮助人工安全团队跟上节奏。“你无法靠招聘解决这个问题,”Oren对《商业内幕》表示。“必须改变安全运营的方式,才能保护你的组织。”
The roots of the solutions there are just not keeping the relevant pace with the emerging threats." AI has transformed cyber threats at a dizzying pace. Attacks can happen much faster and on a much larger scale, and Oren predicted that the increase in agent-powered incidents will be "exponential." Mave says its own agents help human security teams keep up. "You can't hire your way out of this," Oren told Business Insider.
Oren与Guy Eshel于2025年共同创立Mave,此前两人已相识多年。两人相识于Oren担任Eshel在以色列国防军8200部队导师之时,该部队隶属情报军团,让他们获得了网络安全问题的第一手经验。
"There must be a change in how you do [security operations] in order to protect your organizations." Oren cofounded Mave with Guy Eshel in 2025 after years of friendship.
在一系列高调安全漏洞事件后,AI智能体备受关注。企业领导者对AI带来的网络安全风险日益担忧,华尔街一些高管在第三季度财报电话会上花费大量时间解释如何防御失控的AI智能体。该技术也被研究人员用于发现安全缺陷:本周,OpenAI表示,其某款AI模型帮助识别出一个漏洞,使全球70%的网站面临风险。
The two met when Oren was Eshel's mentor in unit 8200 of the Israel Defense Forces, which sits under the intelligence corps and gave them firsthand experience with cybersecurity issues. AI agents have come under the spotlight after a string of high-profile security breaches. Corporate leaders have grown increasingly worried about the cybersecurity risks AI poses, and some of Wall Street's executives spent third-quarter earnings calls explaining how they're defending against rogue AI agents.
Oren 表示,部分客户需要一段时间才能适应将安全运营交由智能体处理,但产品的透明度是建立信任的关键。Mave 称,其智能体会记录数千个工作流中每一步的执行情况,让人类员工能够了解智能体的推理过程和行动。Mave 根据公司规模和需求,向客户收取固定费率。其他初创公司也抓住了 Mave 看中的机遇,其中包括智能体网络安全公司 Dropzone 和 Prophet Security。
The technology has also been used by researchers to uncover security flaws: this week, OpenAI said one of its AI models had helped identify a vulnerability that puts 70% of the world's websites at risk. Oren said it takes some customers time to become comfortable handing over security operations to agents, but that the product's transparency is key to building trust. Mave says its agents track each step of their thousands of workflows, giving human employees insight into the agents' reasoning and actions. Mave charges its customers a flat rate, depending on the company's size and needs.
Mave 这笔 3400 万美元融资由 2800 万美元的最新一轮 A 轮融资和早前 600 万美元的种子轮融资组成。A 轮融资由 Red Dot Capital Partners 领投,Lumir Growth Partners 参投。该初创公司目前有 30 名员工,计划利用部分新增资金将员工人数翻倍,主要招聘市场推广和 AI 研究岗位。阅读 Mave 用于 A 轮融资的推介幻灯片:
Other startups have also jumped at the opportunity Mave sees, including agentic cybersecurity companies Dropzone and Prophet Security. Mave's $34 million funding consists of $28 million from a recent Series A round, led by Red Dot Capital Partners and with participation from Lumir Growth Partners, and an earlier $6 million seed round. The startup currently has 30 employees and plans to use some of the fresh capital to double its headcount, mainly for go-to-market roles and AI research.
