JetStream Security launched in March 2026 to solve what its founders call the enterprise AI governance gap: organizations are rushing to deploy AI copilots, agents, and workflows, but lack the visibility and controls to do so safely. Shadow AI, ungoverned model access, and autonomous agents acting on sensitive data create a new class of risk that traditional security tools were never designed to handle. JetStream's mission is to make enterprise AI governable, giving security and platform teams the ability to adopt AI aggressively without losing control.
The company was founded by a deep bench of security operators: Raj Rajamani (CEO), Jared Phipps (COO), Jatheen Anand (CTO), and Venu Vissamsetty (Chief Architect), with collective experience from CrowdStrike, Dazz, SentinelOne, Cohesity, McAfee, and Attivo Networks. That operator pedigree informs JetStream's approach, which centers on deep visibility into where and how AI is used, governance policies and guardrails to constrain risky behavior, and architectural security spanning the AI workflows that increasingly touch critical systems and data.
In practice, JetStream maps the AI systems running across an enterprise, monitors how they behave and what data they access, and lets teams enforce guardrails and oversight, all without becoming a bottleneck that stalls AI initiatives. The goal is to maintain risk management and compliance posture while enabling, rather than blocking, the organization's AI ambitions.
JetStream raised a $34 million seed round, described as massively oversubscribed, led by Redpoint Ventures with participation from the CrowdStrike Falcon Fund. Its angel roster reads like a who's who of security, including George Kurtz (CrowdStrike), Assaf Rappaport (Wiz), and Frederic Kerrest (Okta). Redpoint also named JetStream to its 2026 InfraRed 100 list. With enterprise AI adoption accelerating and governance lagging, JetStream positions itself as critical infrastructure for the safe, controlled rollout of AI across large organizations.
