The global cybersecurity talent gap and soaring cybercrime costs are being met with a new class of AI-powered defense. Secure.com has launched its Digital Security Teammate (DST), a category of AI-native agents designed to function as collaborative colleagues for overwhelmed security teams. The announcement coincides with a $4.5 million funding round from Disrupt.com, backing a solution aimed at a market in crisis, with global cybercrime damages reaching $10.5 trillion and a talent gap of 4.8 million unfilled roles.

Secure.com launched a Digital Security Teammate (DST), an AI agent for security teams.
The company raised $4.5 million in funding from venture builder Disrupt.com.
The DST is designed to bridge a 4.8 million-person global cybersecurity talent gap.
It integrates with 200+ security tools to triage alerts and perform compliance tasks.
Early results show a 70% faster threat detection and 60% reduction in alert noise.
One DST matches the workload of an L1 analyst and security engineer at a lower cost.
The launch addresses a critical breaking point in the cybersecurity industry. Security teams are inundated with thousands of daily alerts, face five-month hiring cycles, and suffer from extreme burnout, with 84% of professionals reporting being uncomfortably stressed. The DST is positioned not as another tool, but as a teammate that works alongside humans, taking on high-volume, high-fatigue tasks like alert triage and initial investigation. “Security teams are drowning. We are giving them oxygen,” said Uzair Gadit, CEO of Secure.com. “The industry does not need another tool. It needs teammates."
The DST deploys in minutes and works across a company's existing security stack, integrating with over 200 platforms including CrowdStrike, Splunk, and Palo Alto Networks. Its core capabilities are designed for immediate impact and trust-building. It provides a natural language interface, requires no new training, and offers transparent, auditable operations where every action is explained. The agent consolidates intelligence across tools, resulting in a reported 60% noise reduction through contextual analysis. It also includes built-in compliance for frameworks like SOC2 and ISO 27001.
Early deployments in finance, healthcare, and technology sectors have demonstrated significant operational improvements. Partners have reported a 70% faster Mean Time to Detection (MTTD) and a 50% faster Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR). The platform has shown it can save over 2,000 analyst hours annually per DST, reducing asset-related workload by 62% and drastically cutting alert fatigue. “Secure.com doesn’t replace our security stack; it brings it together,” said Brendan Laws, COO of Blackpanda, an early deployment partner.
With the cybersecurity crisis proving too large for human teams alone, the introduction of AI-native teammates marks a pivotal shift in defense strategies. By automating tedious tasks and providing unified intelligence, Secure.com aims to empower lean security teams to regain clarity, improve efficiency, and focus on high-impact strategic work, all while operating at a fraction of the cost of additional human headcount.
