Tel Aviv, Israel - February 16th, 2026 - Vulcan Cyber, the Israeli cybersecurity innovator, today announced the successful completion of a $30 million Series B funding round. Led by Liberty City Ventures and SignalFire, with participation from existing investors Team8, Viola Ventures, and Glilot Capital Partners, this investment will fuel the company's mission to revolutionize security operations through full automation - particularly within the increasingly vulnerable operational technology (OT) and Internet of Things (IoT) landscapes.

Founded in 2019 by Ashish Jha, Yael Knopf, and Tomer Sacovsky, Vulcan Cyber has quickly emerged as a key player in the evolving cybersecurity arena. The core of their innovation lies in a platform designed to bridge the gaps between fragmented security tools and streamline incident response. In a world inundated with security alerts, Vulcan Cyber aims to move beyond simple alert aggregation and into true autonomous operation.

The sheer volume of alerts facing security teams today is crippling. Security professionals are drowning in noise, spending valuable time sifting through false positives and mundane issues, leaving little bandwidth to address genuinely critical threats. This "alert fatigue" has become a significant obstacle to effective cybersecurity. Vulcan Cyber tackles this head-on by automatically correlating alerts across disparate systems, identifying true incidents, and orchestrating pre-defined workflows for remediation. This allows security teams to focus their expertise on the most complex and impactful challenges.

However, the company's vision extends far beyond general IT security. Vulcan Cyber is prioritizing the protection of OT and IoT environments, sectors that have historically lagged behind in cybersecurity adoption. These systems, often characterized by legacy infrastructure, limited visibility, and a lack of standardized security protocols, represent increasingly attractive targets for malicious actors. Think of power grids, manufacturing plants, water treatment facilities, and the growing network of connected devices that permeate modern life - all vulnerable points if left unprotected.

"The convergence of IT and OT is creating a dramatically expanded attack surface," explains cybersecurity analyst Sarah Chen at Tech Insights Group. "While traditional IT security measures can be applied to some degree, they often fall short in the OT/IoT space due to the unique characteristics of these systems. Vulcan Cyber's approach, focusing on automation and unification, is uniquely suited to address these challenges."

The new funding will be strategically allocated to several key areas. Firstly, Vulcan Cyber will significantly expand its engineering and research teams, accelerating the development of new features and functionalities for its platform. This includes exploring the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning to further enhance automation capabilities and predictive threat analysis. Secondly, the company plans to expand its sales and marketing efforts, broadening its global reach and targeting key industries with critical OT/IoT infrastructure. Initial expansion plans include a strengthened presence in North America and Europe, with longer-term goals of establishing a foothold in Asia-Pacific.

Neon Anisfeld, Founding Partner at Liberty City Ventures, emphasizes the strategic importance of Vulcan Cyber's solution. "Vulcan Cyber is reimagining security operations by creating a unified platform that connects disparate security tools and automates incident response, reducing alert fatigue and dramatically improving response times," Anisfeld stated. "The need for autonomous security operations is especially critical in operational technology (OT) and Internet of Things (IoT) environments, where legacy systems often lack visibility and are vulnerable to cyberattacks."

The Series B round is a strong signal of investor confidence in Vulcan Cyber's technology and its potential to disrupt the cybersecurity market. With the escalating frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks, particularly those targeting critical infrastructure, the demand for autonomous security solutions is only expected to grow. Vulcan Cyber is positioning itself as a leader in this space, promising a future where security operations are proactive, efficient, and capable of defending against even the most advanced threats.
