Tel Aviv-based Corma has secured $60 million in seed funding to develop AI-driven defensive cybersecurity solutions. Sequoia Capital led the round, with Khosla Ventures and Coatue also participating. The company caters to Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 organizations across sectors like healthcare, financial services, energy, critical infrastructure, and retail.
The capital will be used to expand the interdisciplinary team, focusing on pre-training, post-training, and cybersecurity research. Corma aims to scale its AI-powered defensive workforce tailored for enterprise customers. Founded in 2025, Corma is creating a foundation model specifically for defensive cybersecurity, enabling autonomous AI agents to analyze security data, correlate signals, and respond to intricate attack campaigns.
Recent research indicates a significant imbalance in cybersecurity due to AI - AI attackers succeed in 88% of simulated enterprise environment cases, while AI detection only identifies 12% of the threats they create. This gap poses risks for critical services, including healthcare and critical infrastructure. The funding will support Corma's research and expansion in enterprise cybersecurity, with a focus on building an AI-native defense force that can collaborate with existing security functions.
