Cybersecurity Funding Frame Security Emerges From Stealth With $50M for Awareness and Training Platform Team8, Index Ventures, Picture Capital, Elad Gil, Cerca Partners, and Tesonet invested in Frame Security. By Eduard Kovacs | May 11, 2026 (1:17 PM ET) Flipboard Reddit Whatsapp Whatsapp Email Frame Security emerged from stealth mode on Monday with $50 million in funding raised for its AI-powered cybersecurity awareness and training platform. The investment came from Team8, Index Ventures, Picture Capital, Elad Gil, Cerca Partners, and Tesonet. US- and Israel-based Frame Security was founded by Tal Shlomo, who serves as the companyâs CEO, and Sharon Shmueli, who serves as CTO. Shlomo was one of the earliest employees of cloud security giant Wiz, while Shmueli until last year served as the CTO of the global venture group Team8. Frame Security has developed a human risk management platform covering the full security awareness lifecycle, from simulated attacks to employee training to threat triage. Its simulation module generates personalized phishing, voice, and video deepfake scenarios tailored to each employeeâs role and communication patterns. The platform lets security teams rapidly build and deploy individualized training programs, including content addressing newly emerging attack techniques. A continuous human risk-scoring engine aggregates signals from simulations and employee behavior to provide real-time risk visibility at the individual, team, and organizational levels.

Frame also includes a phishing and threat-triage module: when employees report suspicious messages across any communication channel, the platformâs AI analyzes and scores them in real time. Frame says its platform is already used by startups and Fortune 500 companies. âWe have the right team, the right investment partners, and the right visionary customers working with us on solving a major problem that impacts all enterprises,â said CEO Shlomo. âWith the investment helping to fuel our growth, weâre expanding our engineering team, deepening our frontier AI and cybersecurity research, and accelerating go-to-market across enterprises in the United States and globally.â Related : Spectrum Security Emerges From Stealth Mode With $19 Million Related : Boost Security Raises $4 Million for SDLC Defense Platform Related : Autonomous Offensive Security Firm XBOW Raises $35 Million Related : Herd Security Raises $3 Million for AI-Powered Training Platform Written By Eduard Kovacs Eduard Kovacs (@EduardKovacs) is senior managing editor at SecurityWeek.
