Arrakis Security Raised $8M for Agent Behavioral Governance — the Second Bet Hetz Ventures Has Placed on That Exact Problem in Two Months
Israeli startup Arrakis Security disclosed an $8M seed on August 2, led by Hetz Ventures with angels including ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski, Torq CEO Ofer Smadari and Pentera CEO Amitai Ratzon plus Palantir executives. Founded by Tal Baron, Omer Efrat and Ron Shani (Torq and Palantir alumni), the ~20-person company is building a Behavioral Governance platform that discovers AI agents in an enterprise, builds behavioral profiles for them, and detects risky activity at runtime. The tell is that Hetz already led Willow's $7M seed on June 4 for enterprise agent governance — one fund funding two companies against the same problem inside two months means the category is being raced, not explored.
