CROSS-CATEGORY: AI Security Funding Exceeds $350M in 10 Days — Exaforce, Frame, Varonis Acquisition Signal Category's Breakout

TechCrunch / Multiple·high signal

In a single two-week window: Exaforce raised $125M for autonomous SOC (May 12), Frame Security emerged from stealth with $50M for AI social engineering defense (May 13), and Varonis acquired AllTrue.ai for $114.5M+ to add AI system security (reported Q1 earnings April 28). Combined with Artemis's $70M stealth exit in April, this is $350M+ deployed into AI-native security in under a month. The pattern: every security sub-category (SOC, human risk, data security, application security) is getting its own AI-native challenger simultaneously.
