Aikido Security has raised a $60M Series B at a $1B valuation, led by DST Global, making it one of the fastest European cybersecurity companies to reach unicorn status. Founded by developers frustrated with noisy, fragmented security tooling, Aikido offers a unified platform covering code, supply chain, cloud, runtime, and testing. The company now serves 100,000+ teams including SoundCloud, Niantic, and Revolut, grew revenue 5x in the past year, and recently launched Aikido Attack — an AI-powered penetration testing product using autonomous agents. The funding will accelerate their vision of self-securing software with continuous, autonomous testing integrated into the development lifecycle.
