SEATTLE, WA, UNITED STATES, June 4, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Dropzone A, the leading provider of AI SOC analysts today announced its inclusion in Rising in Cyber 2025, an independent list launched by Notable Capital to spotlight the 30 most promising cybersecurity startups shaping the future of security. Unlike traditional rankings, Rising in Cyber 2025 honorees were selected through a multi-stage process grounded in real-world validation. Leading cybersecurity venture firms submitted nominations, and nearly 150 Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and senior security executives voted on the final list, highlighting the companies solving the most urgent challenges facing today's security teams. Dropzone AI was selected for its AI SOC agent, which autonomously investigates every incoming alert so that security teams can focus on real threats. The company joins a cohort that has collectively raised over $7.8 billion according to Pitchbook as of May 2025, and is defining the next era of cybersecurity across key areas like identity, application security, agentic AI, and security operations. “The demand for cybersecurity innovation has never been greater. As the underlying technologies evolve and agentic AI reshapes everything from threat detection to team workflows, we're witnessing a shift from reactive defense to proactive, intelligence-driven operations,” said Oren Yunger, Managing Partner at Notable Capital. “What makes this list special is that it reflects real-world validation—honorees were chosen by CISOs who face these challenges every day. Congratulations to this year's Rising in Cyber companies for building the solutions that modern security leaders truly want and need.” In celebration, honorees will be recognized today at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) alongside top security leaders and investors. "Our recognition in Rising in Cyber 2025 comes from CISOs who've seen enough band-aid solutions to the alert fatigue crisis,” said Edward Wu, Founder and CEO of Dropzone AI. “Security teams shouldn't waste time triaging false positives when they could be dealing with real threats. Our AI autonomously investigates every alert end-to-end, augmenting analyst capabilities and multiplying their capacity to do work that actually matters." The company reported a new Fortune 500 customer in addition to notable customers like UIPath, Zapier, Pipe, CBTS, and Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance along with continued expansion, doubling its engineering, sales, and marketing teams following its $20M Series A funding in April 2024.
