Investment Boosts Global Security Expansion

XBOW, a leader in autonomous offensive security, has secured an additional $35 million in Series C financing. This funding comes from strategic investors such as Accenture Ventures, DNX Ventures, Liberty Global Tech Ventures, NVentures, Samsung Ventures, and SentinelOne S Ventures. On May 6, 2026, the announcement highlighted the growing demand for XBOW’s continuous offensive security platform as AI-driven cyber threats become more sophisticated.

Oege de Moor, Founder and CEO of XBOW, mentioned, “We’re learning in real time from teams operating at massive scale, and using that insight to build faster for defenders on the front lines.” XBOW now serves over 100 customers worldwide, including Moderna and Seznam, demonstrating its significant industry impact.

Expansion and Strategic Growth

The latest financing aims to accelerate XBOW’s global expansion and refine its market strategy. DNX Ventures’ support in the Asia Pacific region and Samsung Ventures’ role as a preferred reseller in South Korea are pivotal in broadening XBOW’s distribution channels. The company plans to leverage this partnership to enhance its partner ecosystem globally.

Alex Krongold, Director of Corporate Development & Ventures at SentinelOne, said, “Each XBOW agent operates like an extension of our in-house red team, allowing us to scale offensive testing with speed and depth that was previously out of reach.” The importance of this technology is underscored by its ability to operate continuously, matching the pace of AI-driven attackers.

Serving over 100 clients, XBOW is expanding its workforce, which recently surpassed 250 employees. This growth supports the increasing demand for its innovative platform. The company focuses on enabling security teams to operate continuously and proactively, matching attackers’ speed and scale.

XBOW’s platform is designed to identify exploitable vulnerabilities quickly, reducing false positives and ensuring security teams focus on real threats. This capability is crucial as software development speeds up, making continuous offensive testing essential.

With this new investment, XBOW is set to further fuel its international growth strategy. DNX Ventures’ expertise in Asia Pacific and Samsung’s stronghold in South Korea will be instrumental in expanding XBOW’s footprint and increasing adoption in these markets.

As AI technology advances, attackers can probe every system and environment. XBOW’s AI-driven approach helps level the playing field by continuously assessing vulnerabilities, keeping pace with evolving threats.

The strategic investments from these renowned companies underscore confidence in XBOW’s ability to innovate and lead in the cybersecurity space, securing its position as a front-runner in autonomous offensive security.
