Data loss prevention firm MIND emerges from ‘stealth mode’ to raise $11 million – ET CISO

Cyber firm MIND, which protects sensitive data from leaks, said on Wednesday it raised $11 million in an early funding round as it emerges from so-called “stealth mode” after a year of working in secrecy with selected companies.

MIND, whose platform integrates AI and automations to detect and immediately prevent data leaks, noted that in 2020 there were 64.2 zettabytes of data, and by 2030 the data universe could grow more than 10 times – meaning more and more data needing protection.

One zettabyte holds a billion trillion bytes.

MIND Chief Executive Eran Barak noted that billions of records get leaked every year, which is a “major pain point” for companies “and a problem lacking a comprehensive and simplified data security solution for the era of AI.”

Barak and his MIND co-founders Itai Schwartz and Hod Bin Noon previously served as leaders of Israel’s 8200 military intelligence unit. Like many tech firms MIND is U.S.-based with its research and development in Israel.

“While we are happy with AI, and it’s definitely helping us, it’s also causing a lot of challenges,” Barak told Reuters, citing recent data breaches at AT&T, T-Mobile, UnitedHealth and Snowflake.

“We basically make sure you can efficiently use your data using Gen AI apps”, and not fall into the wrong hands.”

The funding round was led by YL Ventures with participation from Adobe, ADT, Crowdstrike and FireEye.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
