StackHawk Raises $12 Million in Strategic Funding to Help Security Teams Keep Up with AI-Driven Development
Summary
With this funding, StackHawk will expedite shipping products and features that make it simple for modern teams embracing AI-driven development to scale safely, especially in data-sensitive industries such as healthcare and fintech. "Were seeing our customers embrace AI-driven development tools like Cursor and ship new applications faster than ever," said Joni Klippert, CEO and Co-Founder of StackHawk. AppSec teams spend hours prioritizing issues, creating tickets, and chasing busy developers, causing vulnerability backlogs to balloon as time is spent on non-remediation tasks. These prestigious global awards, by Cyber Defense Magazine, recognize innovators with compelling value propositions for their products in competitive infosecurity industries. "StackHawk is the only API security solution that ensures the most important vulnerabilities are identified and addressed during the development stage of software delivery, before they are shipped to production and can impact customers," said Greg Sands, Founder and Managing Partner at Costanoa Ventures.
