Launched AI firm Dream obtains $100M for protecting nations and critical infrastructure against cyber threats
In a significant move to bolster cybersecurity, Dream AI, a pioneering AI company, has secured $100 million in Series B funding, valuing the company at a staggering $1.1 billion. The investment round was led by Bain Capital Ventures and includes prominent investors such as Group 11, Tru Arrow, Tau Capital, and Aleph.
Dream AI is redefining cybersecurity with a suite of proprietary AI models that think like both a defender and an attacker. These models are designed to anticipate and eliminate threats before they materialize, addressing the complex data challenges faced by governments in their cybersecurity efforts.
The investment will fuel Dream's expansion into additional markets, with a focus on regions where cyber threats continue to pose national security challenges. The funds will be used to enhance product capabilities and global market reach.
Shlomo Yanai, the former CEO of Teva Pharmaceuticals, will also join Dream's Board of Directors. The addition of Yanai, along with Enrique Salem, partner at Bain Capital Ventures and former CEO of Symantec, further strengthens Dream's vision of building cyber resilience on a national and global scale.
Dream's cyber resilience solution offers advanced AI-driven cybersecurity measures tailored for critical environments. Key features include zero trust architecture, AI-driven threat detection and prevention, 24/7 security operations support, autonomous response and threat hunting, resilience through continuous adaptation, integration with compliance and governance frameworks, enhanced visibility across IT and OT environments, and advanced analytics and multi-agent defense systems.
Recognizing the growing sophistication of cyberattacks, Dream is developing its Cyber Language Model (CLM), a first-of-its-kind family of Language Models specifically trained for cybersecurity operations. The CLM is designed to understand and act on cyber knowledge, automating complex security tasks that traditionally require human expertise.
With the trust of global government entities responsible for national cyber defense, Dream has achieved more than $130 million in annual sales in 2024 to governments and national cybersecurity organizations. Dream's customers can better understand their networks and breach-points using the CLM, without requiring any installation or integration.
As Dream AI continues to grow and innovate, it is poised to play a crucial role in protecting nations and critical infrastructure against evolving cyber threats.
- The investment in Dream AI will not only fuel their expansion into additional markets but also enable them to enhance their data-and-cloud-computing capabilities, as they develop their Cyber Language Model (CLM) – a revolutionary AI-driven tool designed specifically for cybersecurity operations.
- As Dream AI advances in finance through their Series B funding, they will continue to leverage technology and AI to redefine cybersecurity, offering investing entities a unique opportunity to participate in building a secure, resilient, and data-driven future, addressing the growing threat landscape in finance, technology, and critical infrastructure.
