OpenAI just made its first cybersecurity investment
OpenAI just co-led a $43 million Series A into deepfake defense startup Adaptive Security.
Adaptive Security’s platform doesn’t just spoof phone calls: it also covers texts and emails, while scoring which parts of a company might be most vulnerable and training staff to spot the risks. It doesn’t hurt that Long is a veteran entrepreneur with two previous successes: mobile ad startup TapCommerce, which he sold to Twitter in 2014(reportedly for over $100 million) and ad-tech firm Attentive, which was last valued at over $10 billion in 2021 according to one of its investors. Long told TechCrunch that Adaptive Security will use its latest funding mostly on hiring engineers to build out its product and keep up in the AI “arms race” against bad actors.
