An Israeli cybersecurity company called Vega on Tuesday emerged from stealth mode and announced that it has raised a total of $65 million in funding across seed and Series A rounds.
Accel, Cyberstarts, Redpoint, and CRV invested in Vega, which describes itself as a security analytics and operations company.
Vega’s platform, advertised as a more efficient alternative to traditional SIEM solutions, is designed to help organizations detect threats and respond to them.
The platform leverages AI to enable SOC teams to create new detections or use ones from a continuously updated list provided by Vega, as well as to automatically map and fix coverage gaps and noisy rules.
Vega was founded in 2024 by Shay Sandler, who serves as the company’s CEO, and Eli Rozen, who serves as CTO.
The founders are veterans of Israel’s cyberwarfare unit 8200 and former employees of Intel’s Granulate, a now defunct application performance optimization firm that the chip giant acquired in 2022 for $650 million.
“Two-thirds of security teams’ time is wasted searching for data instead of stopping attacks,” said Sandler. “The teams aren’t to blame; it’s the broken, costly architecture. Vega flips the model: we analyze data in place and leverage AI to automatically surface what matters most, giving teams the speed, clarity, and coverage they need to outpace threats.”
Vega says its platform is already used by Fortune 500 firms, banks, and a major healthcare organization.
