AI Agents Get Their Own Security Guard
22 Oct
Summary
- Ultra Security offers real-time agent visibility and control.
- The platform secures autonomous agents connecting to tools.
- The company launched with $10 million in seed funding.
Ultra Security has officially launched, backed by $10 million in seed funding from investors including Ludlow Ventures and Entrée Capital. The company has developed an agentic security platform designed to provide real-time visibility and control for autonomous AI agents. This platform acts as an intermediary between AI agents and the servers they interact with, monitoring every tool call, data read, and prompt request.
The company was founded in 2025 by Chase Lee, who identified critical gaps in AI security as agents began connecting to various services. Ultra's platform offers guardrails for real-time policy enforcement, governance over agent and tool usage, and comprehensive observability of agent-to-tool interactions. It is designed to be vendor- and model-agnostic, with a local-first approach to security.
Ultra emphasizes its purpose-built design for autonomy, distinguishing it from legacy security solutions. The platform is built with a security-first, full-stack approach and boasts early compliance certifications, including SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001. Access to Ultra Security can be requested today on their website.
