Pluto Security Inc. says it has raised $42 million to build security software aimed at protecting enterprises’ AI agents. SiliconANGLE reports the funding includes about one-fifth from a seed round led by TLV Partners, with the remainder coming via a Series A led by Jump Capital. The company is positioned as a vendor focused on AI security as companies increasingly deploy agentic systems.
Across the other outlets, the emphasis is on the broader security challenge. TechCrunch frames the concern as a growing “new headache” for enterprise security teams: when more employees gain access to AI tools, they may use them in unexpected ways, creating new security gaps or risks. The Next Web similarly links the funding to the shift toward wider AI adoption, where employees use AI capabilities to build applications and automate work—raising questions about data access, dependencies, and control that security products aim to address.
