Linx Security, a New York-based identity security and governance platform provider, announced that it has raised $50 million in a Series B funding round, bringing its total funding to $83 million.
The round was led by Insight Partners, with continued participation from Cyberstarts and Index Ventures.
Founded in 2023, the company delivers an AI-native platform designed to continuously map, monitor, and govern identities across enterprises, including human users, machines, and AI agents. As organizations increasingly adopt cloud, automation, and artificial intelligence, identity environments have grown significantly in scale and complexity, with non-human identities now far outnumbering human users.
Linx Security aims to address these challenges by replacing manual processes and periodic reviews with real-time detection and automated remediation. Its platform enables organizations to maintain visibility and control over identity activity while reducing security risks without slowing operational performance.
The company has already secured multimillion-dollar contracts with banks, healthcare organizations, and Fortune 500 companies, managing millions of identities globally. It recently introduced “Autopilot,” an autonomous AI agent designed to continuously monitor identity activity, detect changes in real time, and take action either through automated resolution or escalation.
The new funding will be used to support Linx Security’s next phase of growth, including expanding its global footprint, scaling enterprise go-to-market efforts, and accelerating product development focused on autonomous identity governance.
KEY QUOTES:
“Identity governance has shifted from a back-office compliance function to a core pillar of enterprise security. This funding allows us to scale faster and meet the growing demand from organizations that need real-time visibility and control over every kind of identity operating in their environment.”
Israel Duanis, CEO And Co-Founder, Linx Security
“Linx is reimagining IGA architecture to tackle the emerging problem of agent governance. The company’s AI-first approach, along with the introduction of Linx Autopilot, well positions Linx in this critical category and we’re thrilled to partner on this journey.”
Teddie Wardi, Managing Director, Insight Partners
“We backed Linx at inception because we believe identity would become the core control layer of modern security. AI agents are rapidly expanding the number of identities operating inside organizations, turning identity governance from a back-office compliance task into a board-level risk. Linx is building the platform to govern that new reality.”
Gili Raanan, Founding Partner, Cyberstarts
