Hush Security Raises $30 Million for AI Agent Governance

Hush Security, a cybersecurity startup founded in 2024, raised $30 million to expand its platform for controlling AI agents (autonomous software that performs tasks independently) in enterprise environments. The platform uses scoped just-in-time permissions (temporary access rights granted only when needed), eliminates the need for stored credentials, logs all agent actions, and provides a centralized kill switch to shut down agents if needed.
