the next funded security category is stopping data from leaking into ai tools. mind raised $72m on sept 17 for ai-native dlp that finds sensitive files across saas, endpoints, and email and keeps them out of the llm calls your agents make.

dlp is back, aimed at the agent's context window.

Context

MIND's press release of 17 September 2026 announces a 72 million dollar Series B, one year after a 30 million dollar Series A, led by Crosspoint Capital Partners with YL Ventures and Paladin Capital Group, for total funding of 112 million dollars. The company reports over 17x revenue growth and 8x customer growth in the past year. The platform is described as discovering sensitive data across SaaS, GenAI, agentic AI, endpoints, on-premise file shares and email, and includes a customer quote about blocking protected health information from entering AI tools.

How it compares

The raise, date and lead are first-party. This is a raise, not a valuation; no valuation was read. The growth multiples are company-reported. The release describes blocking sensitive data from entering AI tools and monitoring agent activity, and the exact mechanism for LLM calls made by agents was not detailed in the text read, so it is a vendor claim. SiliconANGLE and Globes coverage was seen as snippets only. That DLP is back and aimed at the agent's context window is the author's thesis; the release itself calls DLP an established market rebuilt for AI.

Watch next

  • Valuation reporting and independent tests of the agent blocking.
