Nucleus Security Secures $20 Million in Funding

A recent funding round has netted Nucleus Security $20 million, bringing the company’s total investment to over $86 million.

About Nucleus Security

Nucleus Security was founded in 2018 by former US Department of Defense security experts and is headquartered in Sarasota, Florida.

The company’s platform is designed to provide a unified view of an organization’s security posture by integrating data from over 200 connectors and using AI-based intelligence to provide context and prioritize risks.

Key Features of Nucleus Security’s Platform

  • Automates vulnerability management by correlating flaws with real-world threat data from multiple sources, normalizing it, and mapping assets to specific teams.
  • Enables faster remediation and reduces exposure.
  • Vendor-agnostic, covering exposure across tools, users, environments, and business units, and enabling coordinated action.

“This investment reinforces what our customers already know: security teams need speed, clarity, and real outcomes, not more data. We’re helping organizations cut through the noise, prioritize the risks that matter most, and reduce exposure faster in today’s cloud and AI-driven environments.”

— Steve Carter, Nucleus co-founder and CEO

Future Plans

The company plans to use the fresh investment to deepen its intelligence and automation capabilities across cloud and AI-driven environments and strengthen its platform’s long-term resilience.

With this funding, Nucleus is poised to further establish itself as a leader in the exposure management market.
