Seal Security Secures $13 Million in Series A Funding for Go-to-Market Expansion and Platform Development
Seal Security, a leading provider of application security solutions, has announced the successful completion of a $13 million Series A funding round, bringing its total funding to $20 million. The funding round was led by Vertex Israel, with participation from Crew Capital, More Investments, SBI Group, and CCL.
The new funds will be used to enhance Seal Security's go-to-market efforts and accelerate the expansion of its core platform.

The platform ensures compliance with standards such as PCI DSS, FedRAMP, and DORA, making it a trusted choice for leading global cyber companies and highly regulated enterprises. Seal Security's customer impact and ability to execute at scale have been noted by investors.
Itamar Sher, the CEO of Seal Security, expressed his excitement about the funding and the opportunities it presents. "This investment will allow us to scale our operations, accelerate our product development, and boost our sales, marketing, and customer acquisition efforts," he said.
The funding will support the development of the platform that delivers production-ready patches to protect applications, operating systems, and container base images without requiring version upgrades or complex migrations. It will also enable the company to scale operations to support rapid customer growth and increased demand for automated vulnerability remediation.
Furthermore, Seal Security plans to innovate using technologies such as large language models (LLMs) to accelerate secure code patching, reduce vulnerability backlogs, and maintain compliance with standards like PCI DSS, FedRAMP, and DORA.
Tami Bronner, the General Partner of Vertex Ventures Israel, who is deepening its partnership with Seal, said, "Seal Security is shaping the future of secure software delivery, and we are excited to support their growth and innovation."
