TEL AVIV, Israel — Sola Security, the Cybersecurity AI assistant, announced that it has raised a $35 million Series A round led by existing investor S32 and joined by M12, Microsoft’s Venture Fund, and New Era Capital Partners.

All existing investors, including venture capitalist Mike Moritz, S Capital, and Glilot Capital Partners joined the round as well.

Meeting the moment

“Cybersecurity is entering its AI moment, and we intend to lead it,” said Guy Flechter, CEO & co-founder of Sola Security. “We’re building the go-to platform for creating security solutions, with Sola AI turning ideas into instant, customizable defenses without the complexity, cost, or vendor locking that has held teams back for decades. Just as design, payments, and collaboration were reimagined by the likes of Canva, Stripe, and Figma, we’re redefining how cybersecurity challenges are solved. Our industry needs to move faster, and to do what needs to be done so solutions are simple, lightweight, and tailored to specific needs. We’re thrilled to be leading the charge.”

Sola was founded in 2024 by cybersecurity veterans Flechter (former CEO & Co-Founder of Cider Security, acquired by Palo Alto Networks) and Ron Peled (former Global CISO of LivePerson and strategic security consultant to startups). In the six months since emerging from stealth, Sola Security has garnered more than 2,000 users who created over 1,000 custom security apps with Sola’s generative AI, spanning from identity and access management to cloud security, posture and configuration management, compliance, and more.
