Dubai-based cybersecurity company Secure.com today announced that it had secured a $4.5 million investment from the Disrupt.com AI fund and announced the launch of Digital Security Teammates, artificial intelligence-naive agents that help security teams take on cybercrime.

Digital Security Teammates are always on AI-native agents that work inside a company’s existing security stack. The agents investigate alerts, triage incidents, perform compliance tasks and escalate only when needed.

Notably, Digital Security Teammates do not add another dashboard but instead simplify and reinforce the ones a team already has. The Teammates add a unified intelligence layer across a company’s existing security stack that allows teams to investigate alerts and resolve issues more efficiently.

The system uses contextual reasoning to dramatically reduce false positives. It also provides a natural-language interface that delivers instant answers, guided actions and clear, auditable explanations for every step an agent takes.

The platform also maintains alignment with major global regulatory frameworks, including Service Organization Control 2, International Organization for Standardization 27001, the National Cybersecurity Authority Essential Cybersecurity Controls and the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority cybersecurity framework.

Digital Security Teammates works with more than 200 security products, such as Microsoft Sentinel and those from Splunk Inc., CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. and Palo Alto Networks Inc., to reinforce the tools organizations already use while simplifying overall operations.

Core to the offering is that ability to remove the routine work that Secure.com claims causes half of security leaders to consider leaving the profession. Digital Security Teammates help teams regain control, regain clarity and regain time.

In pre-launch testing in areas including finance, health care and technology, Digital Security Teammates has delivered 70% faster mean time to detection, 75% faster alert triage and prioritization and have saved more than 2,000 annually per Digital Teammate deployed. The offering also gives zero false positives in training and delivers a 90% reduction in tool complexity.

“Security teams are drowning. We are giving them air,” said Chief Executive Uzair Gadit. “The industry does not need another tool. It needs teammates. We built Digital Security Teammates to work like real colleagues. They take the night shift, clear the queue and catch what humans miss while explaining every action. One Digital Security Teammate does the work of multiple analysts at a fraction of the cost.”

The new funding from Disrupt.com’s new AI fund included months of embedded product development to accelerate the launch of Digital Security Teammates for the global market.
