Israeli startup Frame Security raises $50m
The startup’s AI platform creates realistic attack simulations and personalized training as 96% of organizations still use security awareness programs.
- On Monday, Frame Security launched publicly with $50 million in funding led by Index Ventures, Team8, and Picture Capital. CEO Tal Shlomo and CTO Sharon Shmueli founded the startup to automate employee cyber training.
- Despite widespread training, nearly 96% of organizations still experience breaches involving the human element. Shlomo, an alumnus of Israel's Unit 8200, noted that "the world of poorly written phishing emails is pretty much gone," requiring more sophisticated defenses.
- Frame's platform generates AI-driven attack simulations, including voice-cloned CEO calls, tailored to employee roles. The company is already deployed at enterprises like AlphaSense and Louis Dreyfus Company, advancing what Frame calls "human risk security."
- The global security awareness training market is projected to reach $13 billion by 2027. Index Ventures partner Shardul Shah called the funding "a gigantic sum," emphasizing that humans remain imperfect but critical to security.
- Gartner data shows 43% of cybersecurity leaders encountered deepfake audio call incidents in 2025. As AI makes social engineering attacks easier to scale, Frame plans to accelerate adoption across the United States and globally.
