AirMDR, an AI-native Managed Detection and Response (MDR) company, is aiming to bring enterprise-grade cybersecurity to small and medium-sized businesses at an affordable price.
The firm has raised $15.5m in seed funding led by Race Capital, with participation from Foundation Capital and Storm Ventures. The total includes a new $10.5m investment added to its earlier $5m seed round.
AirMDR uses an AI SOC platform that handles most tasks typically managed by human analysts, including triage and response, while maintaining oversight by a 24/7 human analyst team.
The new funding will help AirMDR scale its sales and marketing efforts and invest further in the development of its AI SOC technology to meet growing demand from enterprises and managed security providers.
AirMDR CEO Kumar Saurabh said, “For the last 25 years, in leadership, founding, and CEO positions at companies like ArcSight, Sumo Logic, and LogicHub, I saw how expensive high-quality Detection and Response was.
“Our mission at AirMDR is to bring Fortune 500 quality SOC to every enterprise at an affordable price. We are running in production across multiple enterprises. Our hybrid model, combining AI Analysts with a 24×7 team of expert human analysts, provides a second layer of defense that best meets the needs of MDR buyers.”
