Cursor Code is ok. Claude Code is good. 𝑷𝑼𝑻𝑯𝑼𝑪𝑶𝑫𝑬 𝑰𝑺 𝑩𝑬𝑺𝑻. Thrilled to welcome Sri Puthucode to @straikerai as our Chief Revenue Officer. na2.hubs.ly/H06sbb70

We’re excited to continue backing @straikerai for their $64M Series A. As enterprises apply agents to their workforces, Straiker helps ensure secure deployment with comprehensive discovery, adversarial testing, and runtime protection. When we first partnered with founders @ankurdotshah and Sreenath Kurupati, security agents were still early in enterprise adoption. Now that they’ve become a critical element, the two have grown Straiker to account for that shift. Congratulations to the Straiker team on the raise. It has been exciting to watch the company grow since we first invested in their Seed in 2024. CC: @guruchahal, @buckymoore, @arifj

Straiker has raised a $64M Series A, bringing total funding to $85M, to secure the agentic workforce. AI agents are becoming the fastest-growing workforce in the enterprise. They are writing code, connecting to tools, accessing data, and taking action across real systems. Some will be useful. Some will be weaponized. 𝑻𝑯𝑨𝑻 𝑰𝑺 𝑾𝑯𝒀 𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑰𝑲𝑬𝑹 𝑬𝑿𝑰𝑺𝑻𝑺. Thank you to our customers, partners, team, and investors for helping us reach this milestone. We’re just getting started.

We're excited to welcome our newest team member, Emmanuel, to Straiker! He brings more than three decades of security and systems software experience, with previous stops at FireEye, Menlo Security, Centrify, and NextLabs. Please join us in welcoming him to the team! 🎉

The last decade of SaaS assumed humans buy software one seat at a time. Agents don't buy seats. They do the work. Ankur Shah published an article on how to build a company that survives the shift from seat-based SaaS to agent-driven everything, and why securing your agents is now a survival question, not a line item on next year's roadmap. A few of his takeaways: 💥 The moat isn't features anymore. It's trust, proprietary data, and workflows agents can't cheaply replicate. 🤖 Agents are becoming the new users. If you can't secure them, you can't ship them. ⭐ Durability beats growth-at-all-costs when the ground is moving this fast.

Winner winner chicken dinner 🏆 @straikerai Ascend AI just won Best AI Security Testing Platform in the 2026 Cybersecurity Stars Awards by The Hacker News. Because if AI agents are going to do real work, they need to face real attacks first. na2.hubs.ly/H0694CZ0
