Straiker just raised $64M because your AI agents are already getting hacked

Attackers hijacked 20,000 Instagram accounts through Meta's AI support agent.

No malware. No stolen credentials. No breach of Meta's core systems.

They just tricked the agent into resetting passwords.

Straiker just closed a $64M Series A to stop exactly this.

The round was led by Marathon, Citi Ventures, Illuminate Financial, and Workday Ventures. Total funding now sits at $85M. Revenue grew 15x in under a year.

Here's what makes this different from another cybersecurity raise:

IDC projects 1 billion AI agents in enterprises by 2029. That's a 40x increase from 2025. Each one has access to real systems, real data, and real decision-making authority.

Straiker's STAR Labs found that 36% of successful attacks on coding agents led to remote code execution. 91% of attacks on productivity agents resulted in silent data exfiltration.

No malware. No stolen credentials. Just an agent doing what it was told by the wrong person.

Your existing security stack was built for human users and deterministic software. AI agents reason dynamically and act autonomously. That's a different threat class entirely.

Audit your agent inventory today. If you don't know how many AI agents are running in your environment, you're already behind.

SIGNAL: Agent security just became a budget line item. The CISOs who ignore this will be explaining the next Meta-scale breach to their board.
