Nudge Security
Nudge Security is an Austin-based cybersecurity company that helps organizations discover and govern the SaaS and AI applications their employees adopt, often without IT's knowledge. Founded in 2021 by Russell Spitler and Jaime Blasco, the platform combines Day One SaaS and AI app discovery, security posture management, identity governance, third-party risk, and spend management, then reaches employees directly with 'security nudges' via browser, Slack, and Teams to guide safer choices without blocking work. It raised a $22.5M Series A in November 2025 and serves nearly 200 customers.
Amplifier Security
Amplifier Security is an AI-native workforce security company that turns the noisy gap between finding and fixing security problems into an automated, employee-friendly workflow. Its agentic platform builds a per-employee Human Risk Graph, then deploys AI agents that engage workers directly in Slack, Teams and the browser to remediate device, app, identity and behavior risks - with humans kept in the loop. Founded in 2023 by Shreyas Sadalgi (CEO) and Tommy Donnelly (CTO), the company has raised roughly $9M and counts security-industry founders and CISOs among its backers and early customers.
