Astelia Raises $35 Million for Exposure Management

"As AI reshapes both attacker capabilities and defensive expectations, the strategic imperative for enterprises is to move from assumed risk to provable exposure. Solutions that show where organizations are actually exposed enable CISOs to align cybersecurity with business priorities, reduce wasted effort, and turn vulnerability management from a reactive scramble into a preemptive defense."

"The company leverages AI for deep network modeling, mapping the enterprise environment, segmentation, and security controls to identify where exploitation is most likely to occur. The platform correlates the exploitability with real-world attack paths, identifying the vulnerabilities that truly expose the environment to attacks."

Astelia, a cybersecurity startup founded in 2014 by former Israeli national red team leaders, has secured $35 million in seed and Series A funding led by Index Ventures and Team8. The New York-based company developed an exposure management platform using AI for deep network modeling to identify where exploitation is most likely to occur. The platform correlates exploitability with real-world attack paths and provides environment-specific remediation plans, reducing unnecessary patch deployments. Astelia will use the funding to expand AI-driven analysis capabilities, advance attack-path modeling, scale deployments, and hire talent across engineering, research, and go-to-market teams.
