Bold Security raises $28 million Series A round from Bessemer Venture Partners,Others

The round included investments from Bessemer Venture Partners, Picture Capital, and Red Dot Capital Partners.

With this new funding, the company has now raised $40 million in total. This includes a $12 million seed round in 2024, which was led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Picture Capital, with additional support from Cerca and angel investors such as Assaf Rappaport and Roy Reznik, founders of Wiz.

“For years, the endpoint was the industry’s biggest blind spot. A decade ago, we assumed everything would consolidate in the cloud, and the problem would solve itself,” said Nati Hazut, co-founder and CEO of Bold. “The AI boom didn’t just challenge that assumption, it completely reversed it. AI has opened up significant new security gaps, but it has also created the path to solving them. That’s what led us to start Bold, and what continues to drive how we’re building the company.”

Bold Security was founded in 2024 by Nati Hazut (CEO), Hadar Krasner (CPO), and Omri Mallis (CTO). The company is based in Tel Aviv and currently has 24 employees. After the latest funding round, the company plans to double its workforce by the end of 2026.

Before launching Bold Security, Nati Hazut founded SAM Seamless Network. At that company, he worked with Omri Mallis, who was the first employee.

Hazut later started another company called Polyrize, a cloud data security and authorization platform. Hadar Krasner joined the company as Chief Product Officer, and Polyrize was later acquired by Varonis.
