Israeli cybersecurity startup Glow has emerged from stealth mode, announcing $180 million in funding that values the company at $1.2 billion. The company's AI-powered platform is designed to continuously map workplace devices, remove risky software, and enforce security policies, aiming to prevent security threats before they reach corporate systems.

Glow focuses on endpoint security, protecting laptops and other devices employees use to access company networks. Its specialized AI agents analyze risks in real time and automatically enforce security measures. The system identifies and removes unauthorized software, acting as a preventative measure against cyber threats.

The company was founded in 2025 by a team of experienced professionals, including CEO Roi Tiger, formerly of Meta, and CTO Omer Singer, who led cybersecurity strategy at Snowflake. Chief Operating Officer Emily Heath, a former CISO at United Airlines and DocuSign, highlighted the challenges enterprises face with current security tools.

I sat in the CISO seat for a long time, and I can tell you the tools available to us were never built for what enterprises face today.
