What Illuminate brings is the conviction to let us stay focused on the hard problem, securing the agentic future so customers can continue imagining it. That's the chapter we're writing now and we needed a partner who understood that bet.

Agents are the fastest growing workforce in the enterprise, and they bring an attack surface existing security tools were never built for. Straiker built the AI-native stack from the ground up: three products with one continuous loop. Discover AI maps the agentic surface and stack. Ascend AI attacks it, powered by a unique agentic dataset that drives the highest adversarial success rates in the category. Every attack feeds runtime defenses in Defend AI, a precision AI engine built for low latency and accuracy. The loop compounds, and so does the advantage.
Straiker is building the team this category demands, engineers, researchers, and security operators at the intersection of AI and security, securing the agentic workforce across healthcare, financial services, high-tech, and AI-native companies. A 15X increase in run-rate revenue caps a breakout year, and Straiker is just getting started.
