Above Security is an Israeli cybersecurity startup founded in mid-2025 by Aviv Nahum and Amir Boldo, both alumni of elite branches of Israel's Unit 8200. The company is building an AI-native platform that uses dozens of cooperating AI agents to monitor an organization's systems continuously, modeling both human and machine behavior to detect insider threats, compromised employees and increasingly the misbehavior of internal AI agents themselves — a fast-growing risk surface as enterprises deploy autonomous AI in production.
Above Security closed a $7M seed round led by Merlin Ventures and Norwest at founding, then within six months added a $43M Series A — for a total of approximately $50M raised in its first eight months, with a headcount of just 10 people. The unusually capital-efficient profile reflects how aggressively investors are betting on AI-agent governance as a new security category.
Founder Aviv Nahum previously built Ctrl, which was acquired by Israeli AI firm Sana.
