Security startup Rig raises $12M to police AI agents running under employee accounts

Israeli security startup Rig Security launched on September 29 with $12 million in seed funding.

The blind spot it targets is specific: coding assistants and autonomous agents rarely hold accounts of their own, so their actions are logged under the employee or service account that launched them. In the words of CEO Guy Kozliner, agents are now the most active identities in an enterprise, "and they are acting under human names" — security teams cannot tell person from agent, and stopping the agent means blocking the employee too.

The product uses machine learning to match one identity across identity systems, with the company itself claiming better than 96% accuracy; an endpoint sensor can stop an agent's risky action without interrupting the employee. The company says Fortune 200 customers in financial services, insurance and health care already run it in production — both that claim and the accuracy figure are the company's own. The round was co-led by Ten Eleven Ventures and Brightmind Partners, with CrowdStrike participating as a strategic investor.
