NewCore raises $66M to treat AI agents as employees
newcore launched with $66m funding to secure ai agents as first-class enterprise identities. this addresses the security gap as digital workers outnumber humans.
cybersecurity startup newcore launched with $66m in seed funding at a $300m valuation to secure ai agents as enterprise employees. the platform manages both human and machine identities in a single system, preventing the scale of ai workers from breaking legacy 20-year-old identity platforms. co-founders include dome9 founder zohar alon and former unit 8200 leader amihai neiderman, who argue incumbents extend human-focused tools rather than building for agents. the system uses split-key architecture and agentic skill integrations for tools like anthropic's claude code to remove manual credential risks. with 50 employees and paying customers starting this summer, newcore bets that ai agents will soon require the same governance as human staff.
