Zenity
Governance and security platform for AI agents and low-code/no-code development, securing agent identity, permissions and behavior across the enterprise.

Zenity secures and governs AI agents and low-code/no-code applications built inside platforms like Copilot Studio, Salesforce Agentforce and similar enterprise agent-builder tools. It manages governance policies, identifies risks such as over-privileged or unsanctioned agents, detects threats, and automates mitigation — extending security oversight into a category (business-user-built automation and agents) that traditionally sat outside IT and security’s visibility entirely.
Founded in 2021 by CEO Ben Kliger and CTO Michael Bargury, both Unit 8200 veterans, Zenity is based in Tel Aviv and has grown to roughly 254 employees. It has raised about $184.5M across five rounds, most recently a $125M Series C in August 2026 led by Norwest with participation from Qumra Capital, SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Hitachi and LG Technology Ventures — one of the largest funding totals of any company in this category.
Innovation Matrix Assessment
Expanded from securing low-code/no-code apps into full agentic-AI security as the market shifted, raising five funding rounds and growing to over 250 employees.
Directly addresses agent sprawl inside platforms like Copilot Studio and Agentforce, a concrete and growing governance gap most security teams currently cannot see into.
$184.5M total raised, including a $125M Series C from Norwest, SoftBank Vision Fund 2 and other major investors, is among the strongest funding signals in this entire category. Also featured in Cyber Defense Magazine's Innovator Spotlight series, a sister editorial publication, adding real external visibility.
Agent identity, permissions and behavior governance across low-code/no-code and agent-builder platforms is a genuinely new attack surface with no direct legacy-security equivalent.
No independent, third-party efficacy or red-team validation of Zenity's detection or governance controls was found; conservative score reflects the category-wide evidence gap.
As enterprises rapidly adopt AI agents and low-code automation, agent-specific governance becomes increasingly central to enterprise security rather than a niche concern.
Why CISOs Should Care
Gives visibility and policy control over AI agents and low-code apps being built by business users across platforms like Copilot Studio and Salesforce Agentforce, a footprint that typically evades traditional AppSec review entirely.
What Makes It Different
Focuses specifically on the identity, permissions and behavior of autonomous agents and citizen-developer apps, rather than treating agent risk as a subset of general LLM or endpoint security.
The Matrix Verdict
78/100 — MEANINGFUL INNOVATOR
Strong Performer approaching Transformational: the funding scale, founder pedigree and genuinely novel problem focus (agent governance) are among the strongest in this category, held back only by the category-wide lack of independent efficacy proof.
Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings
Funding total and headcount are corroborated by Tracxn and multiple funding-announcement outlets (Calcalist, SiliconANGLE). Detection or governance-accuracy claims made by Zenity are UNVERIFIED vendor claims not independently tested here.
