Daylight Security raises $80M after 40x revenue growth

Managed detection and response startup Daylight Security has raised $80 million in a Series B round led by Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, following more than 40-fold revenue growth over the past year. The company deploys AI agents built by its own security engineers to handle routine security operations, with human engineers governing complex decisions. Daylight claims its service detects threats within seconds and contains them within minutes. Customers include Miro, LastPass, and dLocal. The company will use the funds to expand in the U.S. and enter Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific markets. Total investment now stands at $120 million.
