London and Amsterdam-based offensive security platform Hadrian has secured a \u00a330.8m funding round to expand its operations across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The investment round was co-led by Forgepoint Capital International and SmartFin, with participation from existing investors HV Capital, Motive Partners, Picus Capital, and Oetker Ventures. The transaction brings the company’s total funding raised to approximately \u00a350.1m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Founded in 2021 by Rogier Fischer, Olivier Beg, and Maurice Clin, Hadrian provides an automated offensive security platform that identifies, validates, and mitigates external cyber risks. The platform combines continuous exposure management through its Atlas product with agentic penetration testing via its Nora tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The capital extension will support engineering and research hires, alongside international sales expansion to serve corporate clients including McKesson, NBCUniversal, Francisco Partners, TotalEnergies, Amadeus, Leroy Merlin, and Damen Shipyards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rogier Fischer, chief executive of Hadrian, commented: \u201cEveryone can see that AI is changing the threat landscape. It might also hold the answer, but most people are focused on automating the wrong bits. We have been working with LLMs since before they went mainstream, and we know that AI can work much faster than any human offensive security team. So we built a platform that emulates hackers\u2019 attack paths, helping our customers to understand their key risks and prioritise their security resources appropriately.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Damien Henault, Managing Director and Partner at Forgepoint Capital International, said: \u201cThere are too many vulnerabilities and noise out there for teams to manage, so they need tools that can help them see clearly and think like AI-armed hackers. Hadrian\u2019s AI native always-on solution delivers both depth and breadth and helps its customers to focus on genuine issues and risks, and the companies using its platform are testament to both its innovative approach and the strength of its team, both aspects which make them a natural choice for us to back.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Image source: Hadrian<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" London and Amsterdam-based offensive security platform Hadrian has secured a \u00a330.8m funding round to expand its operations across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the United States.
