Tel Aviv's Hush Security announced a $30 million Series A on July 28 with Akamai joining as strategic investor alongside Battery Ventures and YL Ventures, taking total raised to $41 million. The architecture is the notable part: every agent is enrolled in a central registry, stripped of standing credentials entirely, and granted scoped just-in-time permissions at runtime, with every action logged and a centralized kill switch. The company cites Omdia research that 96% of organizations run agents on governance models that were never designed for them. Founded by the team behind Meta Networks, which Proofpoint acquired.
