Fig Security, a startup founded by veterans of Israel’s elite 8200 and Mamram cyber units, has officially emerged from stealth mode with $38 million in seed and Series A funding. The company aims to solve a critical vulnerability in modern enterprise infrastructure: the inability of security teams to verify if their detection and response tools are actually functioning amidst constant system changes.
The Hidden Risk in Complex Security Stacks
Modern enterprise tech stacks are notoriously complex, often relying on dozens of interconnected tools. In this environment, a minor configuration change in one application can trigger unpredictable downstream effects, inadvertently disabling detection and response capabilities. Security teams currently lack the visibility to confirm whether their Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems are still effective after such updates.
How Fig Security Monitors Data Integrity
The platform functions by tracing data flows from origin sources through data pipelines and lakes, all the way to orchestration and automation platforms. Instead of chasing raw data, Fig focuses on the health of detection rules. By sampling data as it moves through the infrastructure, the platform establishes a “data lineage” that alerts teams in real time if any upstream change compromises their security posture.
“Detection or response is the single source of truth,” says CEO and co-founder Gal Shafir. “We back-trace the health of the data required to trigger those detections. If there is an inconsistency, we alert the team immediately.”
Simulating Changes Before Deployment
Beyond real-time monitoring, Fig provides a simulation environment. This allows organizations to stress-test the impact of patches, fixes, or infrastructure changes on their security tools before they are pushed to production. This proactive approach addresses a major concern for CISOs: the inability to trust their own data in an era of AI-driven, sophisticated cyber threats.
Market Growth and Future Expansion
The company, which launched eight months ago, already serves a base of large enterprise customers. With this $38 million injection, Fig plans to accelerate its North American expansion and triple its engineering and go-to-market teams.
The funding round was backed by prominent industry players, including Team8 and Ten Eleven Ventures. Notable individual investors include former Splunk CEO Doug Merritt, former Palo Alto Networks CMO Rene Bonvanie, and the founders of Demisto and Siemplify. With this capital, Fig aims to scale its client base to between 50 and 100 enterprise customers by the end of the year.
Fig Security enters the market at a pivotal moment, as enterprises struggle to balance the integration of new AI-powered tools with the necessity of maintaining a rock-solid security defense.
