NewCore Emerges From Stealth with $66M to Rebuild Workforce Identity for the Agentic Era
The startup says its split-key platform helps enterprises authenticate and control AI agents as McKinsey reported 25,000 agents already working alongside employees.
On Monday, cybersecurity startup NewCore emerged from stealth with $66 million in funding to launch a security-first identity platform for enterprises deploying AI agents at scale.
Existing identity platforms, architected 15 years ago for web applications, fail to support the scale of AI agents now operating alongside human workers in modern enterprises.
The platform uses split-key architecture to eliminate single points of compromise and includes an 'Agentic Skill' package allowing Anthropic's Claude Code and Cursor to operate as managed identities.
Led by CEO Zohar Alon, the company is positioning its technology head-to-head with Microsoft and Okta, backed by Cyberstarts, Index Ventures, and Evolution Equity Partners.
Currently serving fewer than 10 customers and over 10 design partners, NewCore plans to begin charging for its platform this summer while expanding across Israel and the United States.
