Pluto Security raises $42M to tackle AI risks

Pluto Security has emerged from stealth with $42 million in funding to help enterprises monitor and control employee AI tool usage. CEO Shahar Bahat says new AI tools can appear inside company environments within two hours of release, and 60% of detected risks come from vibe-coded apps built by non-developers, with finance teams being the biggest source. Pluto began selling in April and has already surpassed $2 million in ARR with over 30 enterprise customers. Its software monitors AI tools, agents, and components in real time and can intervene mid-session to block unauthorized actions.
