NeuralTrust: $20M to Secure Enterprise AI Agents

NeuralTrust has announced a $20 million seed round. This is the largest cybersecurity seed financing raised by an EU company to date. The funding will accelerate NeuralTrust's platform for identifying, securing, and scaling AI agents in businesses. It will also fund engineering, deepen product integration, and expand across the European market. Alstin Capital led the round, with participation from several other firms. NeuralTrust is also backed by public funding from the European Innovation Council and Spain's State Research Agency. This investment comes as AI agents become core enterprise infrastructure, but governance struggles to keep pace. Gartner predicts that by 2027, 40% of businesses will demote or decommission autonomous AI agents due to governance gaps. Fortune 500 companies are projected to operate over 150,000 agents each by 2028, but only 13% of firms feel ready to manage them. NeuralTrust offers three products: TrustGate, TrustGuard, and TrustLens, to manage and secure these agents across various platforms. Their customers include AirEuropa, Abanca, Iberia, and Banc Sabadell. This development is important because it addresses the growing security challenges as AI agents become more common in enterprise operations.
