- Pulse Security
Participated · Seed · Jul 2026
Pulse Security offers a system of record and system of intelligence that sits above existing security tooling to capture program-level data, integrate risks, environment, obligations, people, and business priorities into a single context graph. The platform pulls in unstructured institutional knowledge and automates program-level workflows that historically required lengthy consultant engagements, converting processes that once took months into days. Pulse is positioned to help CISOs answer board-level questions about risk, disclosures, budgets, and program maturity by providing measurable program effectiveness rather than relying on spreadsheets. The company was incubated by Foundation Capital starting in September 2024 and launched in January 2025, and its founding team includes experienced security operators and former colleagues from prior startups and Google. Pulse is headquartered in Los Altos, CA and is actively hiring across engineering, product, AI, and go-to-market functions. The company aims to displace spend on expensive consulting engagements and siloed tooling by offering a consolidated operational foundation for security leadership.
