Jazz, a company that is transforming Data Loss Prevention into a smarter system that understands how data is used and explains risks in simple language, has officially come out of stealth mode.
The company also announced that it has raised $61 million in Seed and Series A funding. The round was led by Glilot Capital Partners and Team8, with participation from Ten Eleven Ventures, Merlin Ventures, Encoded Ventures, and MassMutual Ventures, along with several well-known cybersecurity entrepreneurs.
Jazz plans to use the funding to grow its platform worldwide, bring more enterprise customers on board, and expand its engineering, research, and go-to-market teams. The goal is to become a leading Data Loss Prevention (DLP) platform in the cybersecurity industry.
“For years, security leaders have been stuck choosing between protecting their data and maintaining their business agility,” said Ido Livneh, Co-founder and CEO of Jazz. “Traditional DLP was built on rigid rules that don’t understand how modern work actually happens, which leaves teams drowning in noise while real risks slip through. Jazz changes that by deeply understanding intent and context in every incident, finally delivering meaningful risk reduction without slowing the business down.”
Livneh said that developers can now rebuild internal products using AI tools and potentially use that knowledge elsewhere, including at competing companies. Sensitive information such as financial results or proprietary code can also be exposed more easily.
“AI also creates situations where employees try to protect themselves against potential layoffs by collecting information they might use later,” he said. “This has become a growing concern for boards of directors.”
“Our system behaves more like a human researcher than a technical robot,” Livneh said. “It studies the organization, understands the systems and the data in depth, and analyzes how information moves inside the company.”
Jazz was founded in late 2024 by Ido Livneh (CEO), Jake Tuertskey (Chief AI Officer), Noam Issachar (CBO), and Yonatan Zohar (CTO).
The founders previously worked in Unit 81 and have experience at companies such as Axonius and Laminar.
