Lasso Security

Lasso Security is an AI security company focused on securing enterprise adoption of large language models and agentic AI at scale. Founded in 2023 by Elad Schulman, Lior Ziv, Ophir Dror, and Yuval Abadi, the company provides an end-to-end platform to discover, assess, and protect every AI application an organization builds or deploys. Lasso emphasizes what it calls intent security for AI agents, monitoring how models and agents are used to detect and prevent risks such as prompt injection, sensitive data leakage, and unsafe or malicious behavior across the full AI lifecycle. Its capabilities span shadow AI discovery, risk assessment, and runtime guardrails, helping security teams gain visibility into LLM usage that would otherwise be invisible to traditional controls. Lasso targets CISOs and enterprise security teams that need to enable AI adoption while managing the novel risks LLMs and agents introduce. Backed by roughly $28M in funding from investors including Samsung Next, Singtel Innov8, and Entree Capital, Lasso is among the more established GenAI security startups. Its distinguishing focus is comprehensive, lifecycle-wide protection oriented around intent and usage monitoring rather than a single point solution.
