The Israeli cybersecurity startup plans to expand its offensive security offering to cover more enterprise attack surface.

Israeli cybersecurity startup Terra Security today announced raising $30 million in a Series A funding round that brings the total raised by the company to $38 million.

The new investment round was led by Felicis, with additional support from Dell Technology Capital and SVCI.

Founded in 2024, Tel Aviv-based Terra has built an agentic-AI-powered continuous penetration testing platform that provides assessments aligned with real-world threats.

The solution, built with a human-in-the-loop mechanism, delivers tailored, context-aware testing that can be scaled based on a business’s needs.

The AI-based platform continuously seeks high-impact vulnerabilities across an organization’s environment, so they can be addressed before attackers can exploit them.

According to Terra, the solution uses a swarm of AI agents that continuously run thousands of advanced tests tailored to each organization’s unique profile.

Terra, which raised $8 million in seed funding in April, has teams in Israel and the US, and already serves Fortune 500 and other large enterprises.

The startup plans to expand its offensive security capabilities with AI-based red teaming, to cover more enterprise attack surface. It will use the fresh funding to hire new talent, improve its AI agents, and fuel customer adoption.

“This investment will enable us to expand the offensive security use cases we support, strengthen our R&D capabilities, grow our team, and scale our go-to-market efforts as we transform how enterprises approach offensive security testing,” Terra Security co-founder and CEO Shahar Peled said.

In addition to the new investment round, Terra announced that former Google CISO Gerhard Eschelback has joined its board of directors.
