Vega raises $120M Series B to rethink how enterprises detect cyber threats

This AI startup is flipping the script on slow, expensive enterprise security.

Deep Dive

AI cybersecurity startup Vega Security has raised a $120 million Series B, doubling its valuation to $700M. The company is challenging legacy tools like Splunk by running AI-native threat detection directly where data lives—in cloud services and data lakes—instead of forcing costly centralization. Led by Accel, the funding will fuel product development and global expansion. Vega's model promises faster, cheaper security operations for complex cloud environments where data volumes are exploding.

Why It Matters

It could slash costs and improve threat detection for enterprises drowning in cloud data.
