Eve Security is a company that enables enterprises to utilize AI’s potential with robust security and governance. Pulse 2.0 interviewed Eve Security co-founder and CEO Nadav Cornberg to gain a deeper understanding of the company.
Nadav Cornberg’s Background
Could you tell me more about your background? Cornberg said:
“I have 20 years of experience in product development and engineering. I started my career in security for the first 10 years between RSA and Check Point then moved into gaming and hospitality (physical access security) and now I’m back into cybersecurity! My passion is understanding operational pain points and translating that to automation with software, in this case Cybersecurity forAI agents operating in organizations.”
Formation Of The Company
How did the idea for the company come together? Cornberg shared:
“As the CEO, my main focus area is the product. After appointing a CEO and leaving my previous startup, I worked with LiveOak to ideate my next venture. I was looking to build a strong team and partnered with Amit and Sharon. As a team we interviewed close to 30 CISO’s and CIOs and concluded that addressing the interactions of AI agents with the corporate critical systems (Crown jewels) is a huge pain point which existing security tools do not solve.”
Favorite Memory
What has been your favorite memory working for the company so far? Cornberg reflected:
“Ideating and validating the pain points is at the top. In general, the chemistry that we have internally is really good which makes every day fun.”
Core Products
What are the company’s core products and features? Cornberg explained:
“Eve Security protects the use of Agentic AI in organizations. We focus on the Agents and their interactions with the company’s Crown Jewels. The crown jewels are business-critical systems that contain confidential and/or sensitive information. Crown jewels can refer to healthcare records, HR records, financials and sales databases, code bases, IP and more. AI agents interact and perform activities with these systems on a regular basis and must be observed and protected.”
“Enterprise AI has amazing promise, and we want to ensure that future by focusing on the most important data and systems. Our core features include deep observability, along with various levels of control. Eve shows what AI agents are doing, with which systems and why. Our first of a kind agent-in-the-loop (AITL), replaces manual security reviews and surfaces only high risk incidents that require attention. We deploy with minimal friction to provide immediate value. Our ability to enforce policies is based on intent and the data communicated. To sum it up, our observability, policy enforcement and AITL are our core products.”
Challenges Faced
What challenges have Cornberg and the team face in building the company? Cornberg acknowledged:
“As a startup, everything is a challenge as we are proving our product market fit. If I had to call out a specific challenge, it would be how to generate maximum value to our customers with minimal friction / effort required from them.”
Significant Milestones
What have been some of the company’s most significant milestones? Cornberg cited:
“The first was the validation by multiple Security professionals of the problem statement and the need to get it resolved. Then the feedback we received when we started sharing our MVP with our design partners and showing CISO’s what the solution will be. Lastly – Our first hires and the impact they have on our objectives.”
Customer Success Stories
When asking Cornberg about customer success stories, he highlighted:
“As mentioned above, our customers are extremely engaged as we are solving a top priority pain point for them. It’s great to hear feedback such as – “This is exactly what we need”, “You are solving my top concern” in addition to customers sharing what they believe they will be needing from us in the near future.”
Total Addressable Market
What total addressable market (TAM) size is the company pursuing? Cornberg assessed:
“As our target is mid market to enterprise organizations that are adopting AI, it’s easy to see this is a massive TAM. Our immediate market in North America is around about 300 million.”
Differentiation From The Competition
What differentiates the company from its competition? Cornberg affirmed:
“Eve Security introduces the first Agent-in-the-Loop with intent and data -based policy enforcement for agentic AI security, offering the industry’s deepest observability of agentic activity.”
Future Company Goals
What are some of the company’s future goals? Cornberg emphasized:
“We are here to build an amazing company that builds the best technology to provide the most value to our customers. Our approach is very focused to provide the most robust security solution for AI Agents operating in a company and engaging with its crown jewels. Our immediate focus is getting our first customers to share their experience and the value we are creating for them and becoming a good reference for others who are interested in learning more.”
Additional Thoughts
Any other topics you would like to discuss? Cornberg concluded:
“It is clear that AI is being adopted in organizations, 2025 was the year of experimentation, it seems that 2026 will be the year of budget allocation and real adoption – we will see massive focus on moving agents into production. There is now clear urgency for solutions like ours to be deployed so that organizations can leverage the full potential of AI.”
“Eve provides them the right governance and security platform to make that happen.”
