Israeli cybersecurity startup Seal Security raises $7.4 million to expand its business

Israeli cybersecurity startup Seal Cybersecurity Solutions today announced that it has raised $7.4 million in seed funding to expand its operations and development efforts.

Founded by former members of Israel's Intelligence Unit 8200, Seal Security leverages large-scale language models to create automated pipelines that improve patching capabilities. The company's service provides access to security patches across five programming languages. It is said to be able to repair over 95% of critical and high-severity vulnerabilities.

Seal Security seamlessly integrates with a variety of coding languages, patch management systems, and open source platforms through application programming interfaces.

Vertex Ventures Israel Inc. led the seed round, with participation from Crew Capital LLC, PayPal Alumni Fund LLC, and Cyber ​​Club London Ltd.

“Open source software is at the core of nearly all innovation, but securing it requires a tremendous amount of manual effort and cross-functional collaboration,” said Itamar Shah, co-founder and CEO. told CTech. “We are tackling this issue head-on by enabling security teams to automate and scale vulnerability remediation.”
