TEL AVIV, Israel – Novee, a pioneering force in AI-driven offensive security, has officially emerged from stealth mode with $51.5 million in total funding. The round was led by YL Ventures, Canaan Partners, and Oren Zeev of Zeev Ventures, marking one of the fastest Series A closings in the offensive cybersecurity space—achieved within just four months of the company’s founding. The funding reflects strong market validation and rapid customer adoption, fueled by Novee’s unique approach to cybersecurity: deploying a proprietary AI-powered "hacker" to proactively identify and exploit vulnerabilities in systems before malicious actors can. Unlike traditional security tools that respond to threats, Novee’s platform simulates real-world adversarial behavior using advanced AI models trained on vast datasets of attack patterns and system behaviors. The company’s founding team brings together elite expertise from both artificial intelligence research and offensive cybersecurity. Members have previously worked at top-tier security firms, defense agencies, and leading AI labs, enabling Novee to build a system that not only detects weaknesses but also predicts how attackers might exploit them in novel ways. Novee’s technology is designed to help organizations strengthen their defenses by uncovering hidden flaws in software, networks, and cloud environments—often before they are discovered by internal teams or third-party auditors. By automating the process of penetration testing and red teaming, the platform significantly reduces the time and cost associated with traditional security assessments while increasing coverage and accuracy. The company plans to use the new capital to expand its engineering and product teams, scale its AI training infrastructure, and accelerate customer acquisition across industries including finance, healthcare, and critical infrastructure. With cyberattacks growing in frequency and sophistication, and AI increasingly being weaponized by threat actors, Novee’s approach represents a paradigm shift in how organizations prepare for digital threats. By turning AI against itself, the company aims to stay ahead of the curve in the ongoing battle for digital resilience.
