Ontic, the Texas-based connected security intelligence platform, has raised $230m in a Series C round led by funds managed by KKR, alongside JMI Equity, Silverton Partners, Ridge Ventures and Ten Eleven Ventures.
Founded in 2017, Ontic provides security teams with tools to detect threats, manage incidents and streamline risk intelligence across enterprises, including Fortune 50 companies in sectors like technology, finance and consumer goods.
The new capital will expand Ontic’s AI capabilities for faster threat detection and automation, support international growth, and enhance its platform for enterprise and public sector clients.
Ontic’s system brings together internal data from HR, IT and legal teams with external intelligence feeds, helping security teams move from reactive operations to proactive threat management while reducing manual work and improving efficiency.
Ontic CEO and co-founder Lukas Quanstrom said, “Security leaders are being asked to do more than ever—track growing volumes of data, work with limited resources, and still show up as strategic partners to the business.
“It’s a heavy lift. This investment is about backing them. It’s about giving them a unified platform—powered by AI and built for real-world complexity—that reduces noise, connects the dots, and helps them lead with clarity and confidence in moments that matter.”
KKR partner and head of tech growth equity, Americas, Jake Heller said, “Ontic has shown a remarkable ability to support security teams across industries—from multinational enterprises to federal agencies—by addressing the increasingly complex and data-driven nature of security.
“We believe Ontic is setting the standard for what modern security operations should look like. Their platform is built on a foundation of integrated intelligence rather than point solutions and positions them to be a leader in a market that is demanding consolidation, clarity, and scale.”
