The tool especially focuses on shadow IT, where employees install apps independently of their IT departments. Reco identifies these tools, monitors their usage, and flags any associated risks automatically.
“Our vision has been to empower teams and enable businesses so that security feels like innovation,” said Klein.
A Growing AI Cybersecurity Ecosystem
Reco is part of a rapidly expanding field of AI-powered cybersecurity startups. In 2024 alone:
- Torq, a no-code security automation company, raised $70 million in a Series C round.
- 7AI, which uses a “swarm” of AI agents, emerged from stealth with $36 million in seed funding.
- Astrix Security closed a $45 million Series B to protect enterprises from AI-driven cyber threats.
These companies reflect a broader trend where enterprise tech is embracing AI-driven solutions to manage complex, dynamic digital environments.
Reco’s Momentum
With the new capital, Reco plans to continue innovating its SaaS security platform, enhance its AI agent technology, and expand its global customer base. As AI adoption surges, Reco positions itself as a key enabler of safe and secure innovation in the enterprise.
