Token Security is a cybersecurity startup founded in 2023 in Tel Aviv, Israel, that builds a machine-first, AI-native platform for securing non-human identities (NHIs), including service accounts, API tokens, and AI agents.[1][2][3][4] Its product provides continuous discovery, contextual visibility, lifecycle management, least-privilege enforcement, and automated remediation across on-prem, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments, serving enterprises like Fortune 500 companies and high-growth tech firms such as Elastic, GEHA, and Klaviyo to solve the exploding risks from unmanaged NHIs amid AI adoption.[2][3] The company has raised $27M total ($7M initially, $20M in Series A four months ago as of mid-2025), achieved strong revenue growth and customer traction, and was named one of The Information’s Top 50 Most Promising Startups of 2025 in the B2B & Security category.[1][2]
This addresses a critical gap: traditional human-centric identity tools fail against the scale of NHIs, which now dominate access to cloud systems, SaaS, and apps, enabling Token Security to reduce blind spots, prevent cyberattacks, and ensure compliance without disrupting operations.[1][3][4]
Token Security emerged from the realization of a paradigm shift in identity management, as organizations transitioned from managing limited human identities—easily controlled by existing tools—to the vast, uncontrolled explosion of machine and AI agent identities.[4] Founded in 2023 in Tel Aviv (formerly Security Token Network), it was co-founded by cybersecurity veterans including Ido Shlomo (Co-Founder and CTO) and Itamar Apelblat, who identified the need for a "machine-first" approach after observing how human-centric security left critical assets exposed.[1][2][4]
Early traction came swiftly: within months of launch, it integrated seamlessly for customers, delivering instant visibility and remediation, as noted by leaders at Elastic and Klaviyo.[3] By November 2025, a $20M Series A round and recognition from The Information validated its momentum, fueled by enterprise demand for AI-safe NHI governance.[1][2]
Token Security stands out in the crowded NHI security space through its comprehensive, AI-native platform that goes beyond visibility to full governance:
These features position it ahead of rivals like Doppler or Entro, emphasizing proactive control for hybrid multi-cloud scale.[1][3]
Token Security rides the agentic AI and NHI explosion, where enterprises deploy AI agents for efficiency but face unprecedented identity risks—NHIs now outnumber humans 100:1 in clouds, amplifying breach surfaces amid rapid AI adoption.[2][4] Timing is ideal: post-2023 AI boom (e.g., generative models) has enterprises prioritizing secure innovation, with market forces like compliance mandates (e.g., for finance, healthcare) and cyber threats favoring automated, scalable solutions.[1][3]
It influences the ecosystem by pioneering "identity-first AI security," helping Fortune 500s harden permissions and adopt AI confidently, while setting standards for machine-first tools that complement human IAM like Okta—potentially reshaping cybersecurity from reactive to proactive.[2][4]
Token Security is primed for hypergrowth, expanding from NHI basics to dominate AI agent governance as enterprises scale deployments—expect Series B in 2026, deeper integrations with AI platforms like Anthropic or cloud giants, and 10x customer wins driven by its Mosaic Score surge (+163 points recently).[1][2] Trends like multi-agent systems and zero-trust mandates will amplify demand, evolving its role from specialist to category leader in a $10B+ machine identity market.
This machine-first pioneer returns to its origin: reimagining identity security for an AI-driven world, ensuring innovation outpaces risk.[4]
Token Security has raised $27.0M in total across 2 funding rounds.
