OX Security raises $60m in Series B funding
OX Security, an application security platform, has secured $60m in Series B funding to further develop its platform designed to pinpoint and prioritise risks in software development. The funding round was spearheaded by DTCP and saw contributions from firms including IBM Ventures, Microsoft, Swisscom Ventures, Evolution Equity Partners, and Team8. With the latest funding, the company's total capital raised now stands at $94m. OX Security's platform is designed to support organisations in identifying and concentrating on the most critical 5% of application security risks, aiming to reduce unnecessary alerts and enhance overall risk posture. By providing evidence-based risk assessments throughout the software development process, OX Security enables development teams to address the real-world implications of vulnerabilities. Currently, OX Security's platform is used by more than 200 organisations, including Microsoft, IBM, eToro, and SoFi. The company plans to use the proceeds to advance product innovation, and expand its international presence. OX Security CEO and co-founder Neatsun Ziv said: "As AI-generated code becomes the new normal, the risks it introduces are often hidden beneath seemingly innocuous code, flaws that traditional security tools are not built to detect. "OX is pioneering agentic code review, powered by AI and enhanced with critical thinking modules that mimic the judgment of top security engineers. By continuously modelling risk across both AI and human-generated code, we identify and prioritise the vulnerabilities that actually matter." OX Security said that it has witnessed significant growth during the past year, achieving $10m in sales and tripling its customer base. DTCP managing director Dean Shahar said: 'OX is the precision blade that slices through the noise of endless vulnerabilities, empowering organisations to zero in on the critical 5% that truly matter. 'This is a true paradigm shift – OX's code projection and precise prioritisation finally deliver on the broken promises of legacy security tools, whose flood of alerts has become their Achilles' heel. 'As GenAI accelerates code creation beyond human scale, OX unifies fragmented AppSec solutions into a single, cohesive platform, delivering laser-sharp accuracy to secure the ever-expanding attack surface.'

As AI Accelerates Code Generation, OX Security Raises $60M to Focus Developers on the 5% of Risks That Truly Matter
The round, which brings OX's total funding to $94M, is led by DTCP, with participation from IBM Ventures, Microsoft, Swisscom Ventures, Evolution Equity and Team8 NEW YORK, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OX Security, a leader in Application Security, today announced $60 million in Series B funding. The round was led by DTCP, with participation from IBM Ventures, Microsoft, Swisscom Ventures, Evolution Equity Partners, and Team8. The company, which enables organizations to focus developers on the 5% of Application Security risks that matter, hit $10 million in sales and more than tripled its customer base over the past year. OX Security Co-founder and CPO Lior Arzi (left) and Co-founder and CEO Neatsun Ziv (right) Software development is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, driven both by AI-generated code and traditional human engineering. AI systems can produce clean-looking code at incredible speed, but often hide structural flaws that are difficult to detect. Meanwhile, conventional development continues to create complex systems that pose their own risks. This surge in software creation is overwhelming traditional Application Security (AppSec) tools, which flood teams with alerts but fail to identify which vulnerabilities pose real-world threats. "As AI-generated code becomes the new normal, the risks it introduces are often hidden beneath seemingly innocuous code, flaws that traditional security tools are not built to detect," said Neatsun Ziv, CEO and Co-Founder of OX Security. "OX is pioneering agentic code review, powered by AI and enhanced with critical thinking modules that mimic the judgment of top security engineers. By continuously modeling risk across both AI and human-generated code, we identify and prioritize the vulnerabilities that actually matter." OX's platform enables precise, evidence-based risk prioritization throughout the software development lifecycle, highlighting the real-world impact of vulnerabilities and empowering teams to focus exclusively on critical threats. By eliminating the noise of non-critical issues, OX dramatically improves organizations' risk posture while saving millions in wasted developer hours. Today, OX is trusted by over 200 organizations, including Microsoft, IBM, eToro, and SoFi. "Any security tool can find endless vulnerabilities and issue a nonstop stream of alerts," added Ziv. "We're here to tell you which specific vulnerabilities will actually get you breached – and make it painfully clear what to fix first. We built OX to solve the real AppSec problem: not finding issues, but knowing which ones matter. That's what gets buy-in from developers, that's what prevents breaches – and that's why the market is finally ready for change."
