🎉More great news from our portfolio today: Corsha announced an $18 million Series A-1 funding round! "There's such a huge modernization opportunity in connecting operational systems and critical infrastructure yet without a strong identity solution, the risk is too high," said Anusha Iyer, Founder and CEO of Corsha. "That is why we are so committed to our vision to securely connect the operational systems that run our world, delivering the first IdP focused on machines. Today's significant investment from SineWave, Razor's Edge, and Ten Eleven Ventures represents a strong vote of confidence in the Corsha team and platform and a strong belief in the value we deliver for our customers. Corsha has already proven we can support some of the most challenging technology stacks in the U.S. public sector — including for the U.S. Air Force — and we are thrilled to use this funding to bring our platform to more organizations globally." Congratulations to Anusha, and the rest of the Corsha team! Honored to support you on your path to growth.

✨ Thrilled to announce that our portfolio company Twine Security has been selected as a Top 10 Finalist for the RSAC™ 2025 Innovation Sandbox Contest! Twine builds AI digital cybersecurity employees who execute tasks from A to Z to help cyber teams close the talent gap, the first of which, Alex, is an Identity and Access Management expert. This recognition from the cybersecurity industry's premier conference validates what we saw early on: Twine's innovative approach addresses a critical market gap that traditional solutions have failed to solve. The Innovation Sandbox has an impressive track record of identifying category-defining security companies. Previous finalists have collectively celebrated more than 90 acquisitions and received $16.4 billion in investments over the last 19 years. Twine's selection reinforces our investment thesis that the cybersecurity market continues to reward transformative technologies that deliver measurable security outcomes and operational efficiency. The team's deep domain expertise and customer-centric approach have positioned them to capitalize on the growing demand for next-generation security solutions. Congratulations to Benny Porat and the entire Twine team! We look forward to seeing your presentation at RSAC 2025 and witnessing your continued growth trajectory. #RSAC2025 #InnovationSandbox #Cybersecurity #RSAC #AI #DigitalEmployees #Cyber_Execution #IAM #Twine RSAC Conference Benny Porat Omri Green Nadav Erez Justin Woody Colin Blou Ben Ofer
