SAFE (Safe Security) is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, and describes itself as a leader in autonomous cyber risk management. The release states it has raised US$170 million and claims about 10% of Fortune 500 companies as customers.
The SAFE One platform unifies AI security posture management (AI-SPM), continuous threat exposure management, cyber risk quantification and third-party risk management. A real-time AI risk graph correlates signals from contracts, assessments, configurations, external exposure and live activity, and an agentic workflow engine with more than 100 AI agents automates monitoring and escalation.
