One Platform to Solve all Current & Future AI Security Risks

A few days ago, Noma Security exited stealth, announcing $32M in funding and the launch of their application security platform for securing the entire Data & AI Lifecycle. Glilot Capital Partners led their seed round and less than a year later, Noma closed their series A round which was led by Ballistic Ventures .

Noma stealth mode was one of the most intense I have seen–not only due to its rapid aggressive funding rounds with top investors but also because of its swift sales approach, securing multiple tier one clients in no time. This highlights both the urgent demand for AI security and Noma’s strength in delivering comprehensive AI discovery, security, protection, and compliance. Here’s why Noma is experiencing explosive growth.

The Urgent Need for AI Security

As the AI boom continues, it brings both excitement and new challenges, as compliance regulations like the EU AI Act, combined with vulnerabilities in open-source models and a lack of clear guidelines, expose organizations to increased cybersecurity risks and complicate responsible AI use, Noma provides a comprehensive solution to secure the Data, ML and AI/GenAI operations. Noma enables data analysts, data scientists and AI practitioners to work securely, faster and deliver compliant and secure applications, while providing the security team full visibility and coverage of the data and AI operations in the company. Noma helps address these challenges by offering a complete application security solution for the Data and AI Lifecycle. Noma secures AI supply chains, monitors real-time outputs for compliance, and ensures ethical use of AI, safeguarding companies from data breaches and security failures while staying compliant with evolving regulations.

A Wide End-To-End Platform

Clients don't want niche solutions any more. The industry has been saying this for a while, but in recent years it's become the new standard. It's not just about the cost–it's about the people, CISOs don't have enough manpower to operate so many systems. Even more importantly, it's about the noise and the context. When you’re running multiple separate systems, you end up with lots of findings, but without a holistic view, this creates more work, more false positives and more wasted time. Noma covers all your needs, from data security to AI, from development to production, including not just GenAI but also traditional AI. It’s a true holistic end-to-end data and AI security platform.

A Different Approach to AI Security

In the past 24 months the market has been bombarded with various (Gen)AI security tools. Within all the noise, Noma found a unique–and, in my opinion, very exciting path to AI security. It’s not only comprehensive (see above) but also enables security professionals to solve all current and future AI-related risks, making it possible to truly stay ahead of your AI security needs.

Noma's Revolutionary Approach to AppSec

Noma Security's vision for a consolidated-by-design platform is not just innovative; it's transformative. Traditional application security tools often fall short when it comes to the unique challenges posed by AI and data science workflows. Noma's approach integrates seamlessly into existing processes, providing comprehensive coverage across the entire AI lifecycle without disrupting productivity.

Their platform addresses critical areas such as:

●?????? Data & AI Supply Chain Security

●?????? AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM)

●?????? AI Threat Detection & Response

By offering a frictionless, API-based deployment model, Noma is broadening access to AI security, making it available even to organizations without extensive ML/AI expertise.

Impressive Traction and Promising Future

The founding team's background, including CEO Niv Braun and CTO Alon Tron ’s experience from the prestigious 8200 intelligence unit leading cyber security groups and data science teams, have been instrumental in Noma's rapid growth. Their deep understanding of both the technical and business aspects of AI security has allowed them to create a solution that resonates strongly with the market.

Looking ahead, I know Noma is well-positioned to adapt to the evolving AI security landscape. Their innovative approach to AI security, strong market traction and visionary founding team, positions them to become a leader in safeguarding the future of AI-driven applications. As an investor, I'm confident that Noma will continue to solve real challenges and drive significant value in this critical and rapidly growing market.
