Furl, a security remediation startup focused on automating the execution of vulnerability and configuration fixes, has raised a $10 million seed round led by Ten Eleven Ventures. The financing also included participation from Rapid7 CEO Corey Thomas and the Open Opportunity Fund.
Founded by veterans of Rapid7, Automox, and Censys, Furl is positioning its platform as an answer to a persistent enterprise security bottleneck: while detection and prioritization tooling has advanced, remediation often remains slow, manual, and fragmented across security and IT teams. The company cited industry data indicating organizations remediate only a small fraction of identified vulnerabilities, contributing to growing backlogs and prolonged exposure from misconfigurations, outdated software, and policy drift.
Furl’s platform is designed to ingest findings from existing security and IT tools, investigate real-world system context across endpoints and servers, and then autonomously carry out remediation actions with validation steps built in. Instead of generating additional tickets, scripts, or dashboards, the company says it performs the hands-on work of closing findings, aiming to reduce handoffs between security and IT while shortening time-to-fix.
The company integrates with a range of commonly used enterprise tools, including Rapid7, Tenable, Qualys, Automox, Action1, and SentinelOne, to enable remediation within existing operational environments. Furl said early adopters are using the product to shrink remediation backlogs and address issues that historically stalled due to tooling gaps or execution bottlenecks.
With the new funding, Furl plans to accelerate product development, expand operating system coverage, and extend remediation capabilities to support more complex, multi-step fixes. The company said it is continuing to work with early customers as it prepares for broader availability.
KEY QUOTES:
“Cybersecurity has become very good at telling teams what’s wrong, but fixing those problems is still painfully manual. Having built inside vulnerability management and endpoint tooling, we saw how remediation breaks down in practice. Furl applies agentic AI where it actually matters — executing fixes safely, with context — so teams can reduce risk instead of just reporting on it.”
Derek Abdine, CEO and Co-Founder, Furl
“IT security teams don’t need more alerts — they need a way to act on the ones they already have. Furl is tackling the hardest and most neglected part of the security lifecycle: execution. The team’s background and approach give them a credible path to solving a problem the industry has struggled with for years.”
