Sekoia.io Secures €26 Million in Series B to Democratize Threat Detection with AI and Cyber Intelligence
Sekoia.io, a European expert in cybersecurity technologies and developer of the Sekoia AI-SOC platform, announces it has raised 26 million euros from Revaia, with participation from UNEXO and the support of its existing investors Bright Pixel Capital, Omnes Capital and Bpifrance. This Series B round brings the total fundraising to 60 million euros since the company was founded.
With this funding, Sekoia.io will accelerate upon their proven track record of technological innovation in the field of AI and continue to strengthen their highly ambitious international expansion plans in a context where security operations have grown into a formidable challenge for organizations – too consuming for manual intervention alone and beyond the capacity of even the largest companies to manage independently amidst an environment of evolving threats and technological disruptions.
Founded in 2022, Sekoia.io aims to protect organizations against future cyber threats by bringing high-performance detection technology and automated response at the core of security operations. Sekoia.io’s offering is distinguished by democratizing cybersecurity for organizations of all sizes, from large enterprises to SMEs supported by security providers (MSSP or Managed Security Service Providers). By equipping this MSSP ecosystem with a flexible platform deployable in record time, Sekoia.io allows them to be part of the rapidly growing market of outsourced cybersecurity.
A revolution in cyber defense through an automated and open approach
The Sekoia AI-SOC Platform is redefining cyber defense by revolutionizing how Security Operations teams work. Providing a centralized view of an organization’s entire information system, the Sekoia platform:
- Automates the most advanced detections of cyber threats by leveraging an exclusive Cyber Threat Intelligence dataset on both cybercriminal groups and state espionage, produced by one of the most highly regarded private CTI teams in Europe.
- Drastically reduces incident response times by deploying generative and agent-based AI technologies that can learn from, and understand an organization’s security posture. In a market short of talent, the platform empowers SOC Analysts to become significantly more productive, guided by AI, not replaced by it.
- Offers flexibility to companies by focusing on an open and collaborative approach. Whether migrating SIEMs or building a brand new security stack, the platform’s interoperability with third-party solutions (over 200 native integrations) allows for maximizing the return on past investments.
Based in four European countries, Sekoia.io has over a hundred employees and around fifty MSSP partners. Among its clients are major groups such as EDF, Vinci, SNCF, Mirakl, Marlink, and the French Ministry of Armed Forces. The company aims to become the leader in the emerging market of AI-Native Security Platform for managed SOCs .
A market in deep transformation
The cybersecurity market is undergoing rapid change, driven by the rise of sophisticated threats and regulatory developments such as the NIS2 directive in Europe, which imposes stricter cybersecurity requirements on organizations. The MSSP market is experiencing significant growth and is expected to reach $52.9 billion by 2028. By specifically targeting this segment, Sekoia.io is adopting a differentiating approach that allows it to scale quickly through an indirect distribution model.
International ambitions and strategic expansion
With this fundraising, Sekoia.io plans to:
- Strengthen its AI and automation capabilities to address the cybersecurity talent shortage.
- Accelerate its expansion in various regions beyond Europe to replicate the repeatable business model successfully deployed in France.
- Multiply its partnerships with MSSPs to democratize access to high performance cybersecurity for companies of all sizes.
Freddy Milesi, founder and CEO of Sekoia.io, stated: “This fundraising will allow us to invest in the technological development of our platform—particularly in agent-based AI. Out of 4 million real threats detected by the platform in 2024, 25% were detected automatically thanks to our exclusive AI and intelligence technologies! We want to accelerate this momentum while expanding our international activities beyond Europe. Our ambition is clear: recruiting hundreds of service partners who are our growth drivers internationally and to boost their managed SOC offerings through the Sekoia.io platform.”
Hadrien Comte, Principal at Revaia, commented: “We are proud to support Sekoia.io in this new phase of growth and to accelerate its expansion in Europe. Cybersecurity is a critical issue for companies of all sizes, and Sekoia.io provides an innovative solution by democratizing access to advanced protection through AI and automation. Sekoia.io offers a unique and scalable approach that enhances SMEs’ resilience against growing cyber threats. We are excited to support Freddy and the entire team in their ambition to build a European leader in cybersecurity.”
