RADICL Secures $31M to Accelerate the Future of Autonomous Cyber Defense for SMBs

by Chris Petersen on 2026 | 02

 

Small and midsize businesses supporting the U.S. Defense Industrial Base and critical infrastructure face an unprecedented wave of cyber threats, many now supercharged by AI. Traditional security operations centers (SOCs) weren’t designed for this new era, and the gap between attacker capability and defender resources is widening every day.

Today, we're excited to share a major milestone in closing that gap: RADICL has secured $31 million in Series A funding to accelerate development of our AI‑native autonomous virtual SOC (vSOC), purpose‑built for SMBs operating in the most highly targeted sectors.

This round is led by Paladin Capital Group, a global leader in cyber and AI investing, with participation from Access Venture Partners, Denver Ventures, and Cervin Ventures.

Investor Confidence Reflects Momentum

Paladin Capital Group — a global leader in cybersecurity and frontier technology — doubled down in this round after RADICL’s strong growth.

Managing Director Mourad Yesayan shared:

“RADICL has seen rapid expansion, with revenue increasing more than sevenfold. We believe SMBs are critical to the global economy and deserve security solutions that match the threat landscape. RADICL is delivering exactly that.”

With new investment from Cervin Ventures and continued support from Access Venture Partners and Denver Ventures, this funding accelerates:

  • Autonomous vSOC development
  • New product modules
  • Market expansion
  • Support for SMBs across regulated industries

What’s Next for RADICL

This funding positions RADICL to push the boundaries of what’s possible in autonomous cyber defense and to ensure SMBs supporting national defense are equipped for the AI‑driven threat landscape ahead.

For organizations operating in high‑risk or heavily regulated environments, RADICL offers a realistic path to enterprise‑grade protection without enterprise‑level complexity.
