Netsec, a European cybersecurity and managed IT services provider, has secured over €8.93 million ($10 million) in equity funding, led by Paris-based venture capital firm Partech. Additional investors include Primo Capital, View Different, Riccardo Zacconi, Kima Ventures, Ithaca Investments, Vento, Vito Lomele, Everywhere Ventures, and a group of cybersecurity and technology angel investors.

Co-founders Gianluca Varisco and Guglielmo Reina, who previously worked together at Rocket Internet, bring extensive expertise in cybersecurity and venture-scale company building. Netsec aims to eliminate the traditional link between managed services and headcount by pairing a single operator with automation to handle the volume work.

The company offers a comprehensive IT and security stack through a unified control plane, covering device management, identity, networking, infrastructure, security operations, help desk, and cloud services. Netsec's AI-native solution enables mid-market companies to access the security and IT operations of a larger organization without the need for in-house development.

The company plans to use the newly raised capital to enhance its automation and integration layer and expand its operations across Europe and the United States.
