Cogent Security

Cogent Security, based in San Francisco, applies AI agents to the investigation and coordination work that sits between a vulnerability scan and a fix.

The platform collects findings from scanners across the environment, normalizes them, removes noise, and adds business context such as who owns each system.

It ranks issues by conditions specific to the customer's environment instead of relying only on standard severity scores, and it flags emerging threats.

It then builds remediation plans that fit the processes teams already use, handing work to the right owners.

The company was co-founded by chief executive Vineet Edupuganti, and the round also drew executives from OpenAI, Abnormal Security and Datadog as backers.
