FAZE Security has emerged from stealth with 50 enterprise customers, including several Fortune 500 companies, after recording approximately 20X annual recurring revenue growth over the past 18 months. The company also announced $6 million in seed funding led by New Era Capital Partners, with participation from Lockstep VC. The financing will support FAZE as it scales its Offensive Security Orchestration platform for enterprise security teams.
The Limits of Traditional Security Testing
Enterprises are facing a growing gap between the number of vulnerabilities they identify and their ability to remediate them effectively. Annual penetration tests can become outdated as applications and infrastructure change, while conventional scanners often generate large volumes of findings without sufficient prioritization. This leaves security teams managing expanding remediation backlogs while attackers increasingly use AI to move more quickly.
Responding to AI-Empowered Attackers
FAZE is designed to address this challenge through continuous offensive security testing rather than periodic assessments. The company says attackers can now exploit security gaps within hours, increasing the need for faster validation and remediation workflows. Its platform continuously evaluates web applications, APIs, and cloud environments to identify and verify exposures before they can be exploited.
An Agentic Approach to Offensive Security
At the center of FAZE's platform is its Agentic Red Team, or ART, which uses autonomous agents trained on proprietary attack data from thousands of white-hat hackers. The agents operate continuously within defined guardrails and simulate the methods used by real attackers. FAZE positions this approach as a way to automate more of the offensive security cycle, from vulnerability discovery through remediation validation.
From Exploitation to Verified Remediation
FAZE's agents identify potential exposures and attempt to exploit them to determine their real-world impact. Findings are then ranked according to demonstrated business impact rather than theoretical severity alone. Each confirmed issue includes working proof, an assigned owner, a remediation path, and automated re-testing until the exploit can no longer be reproduced.
Enterprise Adoption and Growth
FAZE has secured 50 enterprise customers, including several Fortune 500 companies, as it expands adoption of its platform. The company reported approximately 20X ARR growth during the past 18 months. Customers also report close to zero false positives and more than 50% faster mean time to remediate compared with scanners and point-in-time penetration testing.
$6 Million Seed Financing
The company raised $6 million in seed funding led by New Era Capital Partners, with participation from Lockstep VC. New Era Capital Partners highlighted FAZE's proprietary attack data and agentic capabilities across the offensive security lifecycle as key elements of its investment thesis. The round provides additional capital for FAZE as it expands its technology and enterprise customer base.
Company Evolution
FAZE Security was previously known as CYTRIX and operates from New York and Tel Aviv. The company focuses on helping enterprise security teams continuously identify, validate, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities across modern software environments. Its platform combines autonomous offensive testing with evidence-based prioritization and automated verification.
FAZE's emergence from stealth combines a $6 million seed round with significant enterprise traction and reported revenue growth. By using autonomous agents trained on proprietary offensive security data, the company aims to replace periodic testing and high-volume vulnerability alerts with continuous, verified security validation. Its expansion reflects growing enterprise demand for faster and more automated approaches to vulnerability remediation.
