Prompt Security Secures $5M Seed Funding to Safeguard Generative AI

January 2024

Prompt Security, a platform dedicated to securing generative AI for enterprises, has emerged from stealth mode and secured $5 million in Seed funding. The investment round was led by Hetz Ventures, with participation from Four Rivers and notable angels, including Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) from Airbnb, Elastic, and Dolby. The funding comes at a critical time, as the recent lawsuit against OpenAI by The New York Times underscores the potential risks associated with generative AI, particularly in leaking sensitive training data. Prompt Security’s solution inspects prompts and model responses, preventing the exposure of sensitive data, blocking harmful content, and defending against gen AI-specific attacks. Moreover, it offers enterprises leadership visibility and governance over AI tools used within their organizations. With generative AI rapidly penetrating enterprises, Prompt Security aims to mitigate the associated high-stakes risks while enabling businesses to harness its immense value, emphasizing its critical role in business survival.
