Linx Security, an identity security and governance startup, has raised $50 million in a Series B funding round led by Insight Partners, with participation from existing investors Cyberstarts and Index Ventures. The latest investment brings the company’s total funding to $83 million.
Founded in 2023 and headquartered in New York, Linx has developed an AI-native platform designed to manage and secure all types of identities within enterprise environments, including human users, machines, and AI agents. The platform continuously maps, monitors, and governs identities across systems, addressing the growing complexity of modern digital infrastructures.
The company’s solution focuses on real-time threat detection and automated remediation, replacing traditional identity governance methods that rely heavily on manual processes and periodic reviews. Its system is built to eliminate security gaps by providing continuous visibility into identity access, risks, and behaviors across organizations.
A key component of the platform is its AI-powered “Autopilot” agent, which actively monitors identity activity, detects anomalies, and responds to potential threats instantly. The system is designed to take corrective actions autonomously and escalate issues only when necessary, enabling organizations to shift from reactive to proactive security management.
Highlighting the importance of this shift, CEO Israel Duanis said, “Identity governance has shifted from a back-office compliance function to a core pillar of enterprise security. This funding allows us to scale faster and meet the growing demand from organizations that need real-time visibility and control over every kind of identity operating in their environment.”
Linx plans to use the newly raised capital to accelerate product development, expand its go-to-market strategy, and strengthen its global presence. As enterprises increasingly adopt cloud technologies, automation, and AI systems, the demand for advanced identity security solutions is expected to grow, positioning Linx to play a key role in the evolving cybersecurity landscape.
