Corma Raises $60 Million for Defensive Cybersecurity AI Model
Corma, a new cybersecurity firm, has secured $60 million in funding to develop an AI-powered defensive cybersecurity model. Unlike general AI models, Corma’s system is specifically designed to analyze security telemetry and proactively defend against sophisticated, multi-stage attacks, addressing a growing gap in defensive capabilities.
Corma, a cybersecurity company based in Tel Aviv and San Francisco, announced on Monday that it has raised $60 million in seed funding. The company’s mission is to create an AI-powered defensive cybersecurity model. Corma’s technology analyzes large datasets of security telemetry, including system events and network traffic, to identify subtle anomalies and complex threat patterns over extended periods. This allows the system to operate alongside human security staff, providing a continuous and adaptive defense against evolving threats, including multi-stage intrusions. During testing, Corma’s AI model outperformed general AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic in conducting attacks, but it demonstrated superior defensive capabilities against similar attacks. The company’s goal is to establish a dedicated AI workforce capable of keeping pace with the rapidly advancing sophistication of AI-powered attacks.
