  • OLIGO Security raises $60M, bringing total funding to $140M with participation from Ballistic Ventures, Lightspeed, and others.

  • 300% year-over-year revenue growth and more than doubled valuation since Series B.

  • Selected by AWS as exclusive AI runtime security partner for AWS Security Hub Extended.

  • Joined Palantir's FedStart Program to accelerate FedRAMP High and DoD IL5 authorization.

  • Launched Runtime Exploit Blocking to detect and block exploit attempts at the application layer in real time.

  • Runtime security addresses AI-driven attacks where attackers find vulnerabilities and build exploits at machine speed.

Runtime Security in the AI Era

AI has fundamentally changed the economics of exploitation. When attackers can find vulnerabilities and build exploits at machine speed, runtime becomes the only place where organizations can definitively understand true risk and stop attacks without impacting production. OLIGO delivers runtime security across applications, cloud workloads, and AI systems, combining deep runtime visibility with real-time protection. By observing code execution as it happens, the platform empowers customers to block exploit attempts without breaking production, cut through vulnerability noise, and buy time between patch cycles through virtual patching.

Exceptional Market Momentum

Today's announcement follows a year of exceptional momentum highlighted by 300% year-over-year revenue growth and more than doubling the company's valuation since its Series B. OLIGO was selected by AWS as the exclusive AI runtime security partner for AWS Security Hub Extended and joined Palantir's FedStart Program to accelerate its path to FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 authorization. The company also launched Runtime Exploit Blocking to extend runtime security to detect and block exploit attempts at the application layer in real time. Together with growing enterprise adoption, these milestones reflect increasing market demand for runtime security as organizations adapt to AI-driven attacks.

Strategic Investment and Growth Plans

The additional capital will accelerate product innovation, expand global go-to-market operations, and further advance OLIGO's mission to help organizations block zero-day and n-day exploits in real time. According to investors, runtime is where the business lives - where revenue is generated, customers interact with applications, and brand reputation is won or lost. OLIGO has solved one of security's hardest problems by protecting production environments without forcing organizations to choose between security and uptime.

"AI has fundamentally changed the economics of exploitation," said Nadav Czerninski, co-founder and CEO of OLIGO Security. "When attackers can find vulnerabilities and build exploits at machine speed, runtime becomes the only place you can definitively understand true risk and stop attacks without impacting production. Our investors have seen this transition firsthand through the outcomes we drive for customers, and they're doubling down because they know runtime will define the next era of cybersecurity."

"In the post-Mythos era, runtime simply has to be the source of truth for modern cybersecurity programs," said Brad Arkin, cybersecurity advisor and former Chief Trust Officer of Salesforce. "It's the one place where security teams can accurately determine what's truly exploitable and where they can apply compensating controls to stop exploit attempts in real time. That combination of precision and protection is what makes OLIGO's approach so groundbreaking."

"Runtime is where the business lives," said Jake Seid, co-founder and General Partner of Ballistic Ventures. "It's where revenue is generated, customers interact with applications, and brand reputation is won or lost. OLIGO has solved one of security's hardest problems by protecting production environments without forcing organizations to choose between security and uptime. Their combination of technical innovation, customer momentum, and category leadership made our decision to increase our investment an easy one."

About OLIGO Security

OLIGO is the industry's leading runtime security platform that solves today's toughest challenge: stopping attacks in real time without stopping the business. OLIGO transforms security from passive visibility to active protection across applications, cloud workloads, and AI systems. By uncovering the deepest layers of what actually runs in production, OLIGO empowers customers to prioritize exploitable vulnerabilities, detect malicious behavior as it happens, and stop modern attacks in their tracks.
