Venice Security Emerges From Stealth With $33M Funding for Privileged Access Management

Formerly named Valkyrie, the company’s funding includes $25 million raised in a Series A round. 

Funding

Venice Security on Wednesday emerged from stealth mode with $33 million in funding for its adaptive enterprise privileged access management platform.

The company, formerly named Valkyrie, has operations in Tel Aviv and New York. It focuses on eliminating standing privilege by default to enhance security in complex enterprise settings.

The total investment includes a recent $25 million Series A funding round led by IVP, with participation from Index Ventures, Vine Ventures, Holly Ventures, and angel investors.

Venice Security offers a platform that provides unified control over access points in hybrid environments, including cloud, on-premises, and SaaS systems.

The system discovers identities and entitlements, granting access only when required and revoking it immediately after.

It includes dynamic policies that adapt in real time to changes in user behavior or environmental conditions, requiring no agents or proxies for deployment.

“The way organisations manage access isn’t keeping up with how business operates today,” stated Rotem Lurie, co-founder and CEO of Venice. 

“Teams move faster, environments shift constantly, and AI is accelerating operations across the enterprise and threat actors. Access control needs to match that tempo. Venice is on a mission to provide real-time access, granted only when required, and removed the moment it’s not,” Lurie, who previously served as head of product at Axis Security, added.
