Saviynt has raised $700 million in a Series B growth equity round led by KKR at a valuation of approximately $3 billion. The funding round included participation from Sixth Street Growth and TenEleven, along with additional capital from existing Series A investor Carrick Capital Partners. The investment reflects growing institutional conviction that identity security is now foundational for enterprises deploying AI at scale.
The company’s AI-powered identity platform manages, governs, and secures access for human, machine, and AI agent identities across applications, data, and infrastructure. Saviynt integrates identity governance and administration, privileged access management, application access governance, identity security posture management, and access gateways into a unified platform built for both cloud and AI-driven environments. As enterprises accelerate adoption of copilots, autonomous agents, machine-to-machine workflows, and continuously operating AI identities, Saviynt aims to provide the policy, lifecycle, posture, and privilege controls needed to maintain security and compliance.
The company has expanded to more than 600 enterprise customers, including over one fifth of the Fortune 100, while adding new products for AI agent identity management, non-human identity management, privileged access management, and identity posture management. It has also delivered AI-enabled intelligence to streamline application onboarding, certification, access reviews, and provisioning processes. Recent integrations with AWS, CrowdStrike, Zscaler, Wiz, and Cyera reflect Saviynt’s expanding role within global security ecosystems.
The new capital will support accelerated research and development, expanded product capabilities, new AI-based tools to help organizations migrate from legacy identity systems, and deeper collaboration with hyperscalers, SaaS platforms, consulting firms, and reseller partners.
KKR’s investment draws on its long-standing experience backing leading cybersecurity and identity platforms, including Darktrace, ReliaQuest, KnowBe4, Ping Identity, ForgeRock, and Semperis. The firm plans to support Saviynt’s global expansion efforts through its technology growth fund.
Support: Advisors for the transaction included Piper Sandler as financial advisor to Saviynt, Cooley as Saviynt’s legal counsel, and Latham & Watkins as legal advisor to Carrick Capital Partners. Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher served as KKR’s legal counsel, while Moelis & Co advised Sixth Street Growth and Kirkland & Ellis served as its legal counsel.
