Agentic security that discovers, tests and protects enterprise AI agents
About Straiker
Straiker is a Mountain View cybersecurity company building an agentic-native platform to discover, adversarially test and protect enterprise AI agents at runtime. Co-founded by CEO Ankur Shah (formerly SVP/GM of Palo Alto Networks' Prisma Cloud) and CTO Sreenath Kurupati (Akamai/Cyberfend), Straiker pairs agent discovery with STAR Labs threat research and shared intelligence so production findings harden pre-deployment testing and vice versa. Since launching in 2025 the company reports partnerships with frontier AI labs and Fortune 500 enterprises and more than 15× run-rate revenue growth in under a year. In June 2026 Straiker raised $64 million in Series A funding led by Marathon Management Partners, Citi Ventures, Illuminate Financial and Workday Ventures, with continued support from Bain Capital Ventures and Lightspeed plus GTM Capital, Rain Capital, Neva SGR, Firebolt Ventures and Sixty Degree Ventures — bringing total funding to $85 million.
