AI vs. AI: Prophet Security raises $30M to replace human analysts with autonomous defenders


Prophet Security raises $30 million to launch a fully autonomous AI cybersecurity platform that investigates and responds to threats without human intervention, promising 10x faster response times and 96% fewer false positives.

The company has built what Shah describes as an “evals framework” to ensure accuracy, repeatability, and consistency while preventing AI hallucinations—a critical concern in security contexts where false information can lead to inappropriate responses. The company’s ability to demonstrate measurable improvements in SOC efficiency while maintaining transparency and explainability positions it to capture market share as organizations grapple with the dual pressures of increasing threats and persistent talent shortages. With the new funding, Prophet Security aims to accelerate this transition, potentially setting the standard for how organizations defend against AI-powered attacks in an era where the speed and scale of threats exceed human capacity to respond manually.
