Teleskope Raises $25M to Address Enterprise Data Security with Agentic Automation

"As enterprises push to adopt AI at scale, a critical bottleneck emerges - 74% of organizations cite data security as their most significant barrier, yet nearly half of security teams face budget cuts while a global shortage of five million security professionals deepens the crisis. Traditional data security tools exacerbate the problem rather than solve it, scanning for standard patterns and generating tens of thousands of low-value alerts that overwhelm teams without providing clear paths to remediation."

"Teleskope addresses this fundamental gap with the industry's first agentic data security platform that operates like a human security team - automatically discovering, classifying, and protecting sensitive data while taking autonomous action to remediate risk in real time. The platform's proprietary multi-stage classification pipeline processes 40,000 bytes per second with 99.3% accuracy, applies company-specific policies with full business context, and actively fixes issues from revoking improper access to enforcing retention periods, effectively embedding a 24/7 data security team within enterprise environments."
