Strike is a Uruguay-based provider of AI-powered continuous penetration testing and compliance solutions, founded by Santiago Rosenblatt. Its flagship product, Strike360, is an AI-powered engine that automates vulnerability detection, retesting, and compliance processes. Key features include real-time vulnerability alerts, actionable remediation suggestions, and downloadable compliance reports to assist with regulatory requirements. Strike serves enterprise customers across finance, healthcare, and technology, including Okta, Globant, DeliveryHero, and Santander Bank. The company will use the $13.5M Series A to scale operations in the U.S. and Brazil and to accelerate development and deployment of Strike360. The Series A was led by FinTech Collective with participation from Galicia Ventures, Greyhound Capital Management, FJ Labs, Canary Ventures, and Carao Ventures. Strike Security combines automated scanning with a network of ethical hackers (“Strikers”) to deliver continuous penetration testing and recurring vulnerability monitoring at a lower cost than traditional providers. The platform embeds Strikers with engineering teams via integrations with tools such as Jira and Slack, provides automated reporting for compliance, and runs scheduled scans to detect critical vulnerabilities. Strike says its offering is roughly ten times more accessible than some competitors and maintains a waiting list of more than 100 ethical hackers. The company positions its service as a way to shift penetration testing from an infrequent, costly exercise to a consistent security practice. Strike raised a $5.4 million seed round to build out the product and grow its hacker network. The startup plans to use the funding to strengthen its position in the Latin American region in 2022 and subsequently expand into the U.S. and European markets.
