One signal

Mind, whose AI agents handle data loss prevention tasks autonomously, has raised a $72 million Series B, CTech reports, with sources putting the valuation at around $300 million. That takes the company's total raised to $112 million.

Why it matters

The commercial number is the interesting one: a $10 million annual revenue run rate just 18 months after the product went on sale. Investors, it seems, are happy to pay for software that reads the company's most sensitive traffic and decides what counts as a leak. That is also the wrinkle. DLP is exactly the kind of high-stakes judgement work where a false positive annoys everyone and a false negative is a breach. Mind is betting enterprises will let an agent make that call, and 18 months of revenue suggests some already do. It slots into a busy funding lane: agent oversight, agent security and now agents doing the security themselves. Would you let an autonomous agent decide what counts as a data leak in your organisation, or does that judgement need a human sign-off on every call?
