Descriptiontext

Linx Security is an AI-native identity security, governance, and administration (IGA) platform founded in 2023 in Tel Aviv by Israel Duanis (CEO) and Niv Goldenberg (CPO), now headquartered in New York with US incorporation as Linx Security Inc. The platform unifies identity intelligence, automation, AI-powered analytics, and a partner integration layer into a single product suite serving large enterprise and Fortune 500 buyers across financial services, retail, real estate, food services, fitness, utilities, and cybersecurity.

The technical core is the Linx Identity Graph, a proprietary graph-based data model that normalizes and correlates identity and entitlement data across cloud, SaaS, on-premises, and custom applications, spanning human, non-human service accounts, and AI agent identities. Layered on top of this graph are AI-native analytics covering privilege classification and blast-radius mapping, peer/usage analysis, and semantic analysis, plus an AI Assistant/Copilot for conversational identity investigations. Two AI-forward product extensions sit above this foundation: Linx Autopilot, an autonomous AI agent that continuously monitors the identity environment and either remediates risk or escalates with full audit context; and the Linx MCP Gateway (Agentic Access Control), an inline Model Context Protocol gateway that inspects every AI agent tool call against access profiles and maintains audit trails back to human identity. Solution modules include Modern IGA, Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM), Just-in-Time Access, Identity Lifecycle Management, and Agentic Identity Governance, delivered with agentless data ingestion and an AI-powered custom connector for legacy and homegrown apps.

Linx Security monetizes primarily through recurring SaaS subscriptions sold via direct enterprise field sales ('Get a demo' CTAs, named Fortune 500 case studies, dedicated account reps), supplemented by AWS Marketplace and Microsoft Azure Marketplace listings and a formal channel Partner Program. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company has raised $83M total across a $33M Series A (July 2024, led by Index Ventures and Cyberstarts with participation from Wiz founders) and a $50M Series B (March 2026, led by Insight Partners with Cyberstarts and Index), with the Series B explicitly earmarked to scale enterprise GTM and global expansion. Third-party reporting (getlatka) cites $10.5M ARR as of September 2025, and the company states 10x revenue growth in 2025 and 3x employee growth. Named enterprise customers include Peloton, Discount Tire, Aramark, Allegro, Evolv, WIZ, Achieve, New American Funding, SmartCentres, and Summit Utilities, with 5M digital identities reported as protected across the customer base.

Peers10 records
TypeDirect peer
Description

The market-leading legacy identity governance and administration (IGA) platform and the most direct competitor to Linx's Modern IGA module. Both target Fortune 500 identity governance buyers with similar core functionality (lifecycle management, access reviews, provisioning), differing primarily in architecture (legacy vs. AI-native graph).

TypeDirect peer
Description

Cloud-native IGA platform competing head-to-head with Linx for enterprise identity governance deals. Both emphasize SaaS delivery, modern cloud/SaaS connectors, and converged identity governance + privileged access, with overlapping buyer personas in regulated Fortune 500.

TypeBroad incumbent
Description

Broader identity platform covering SSO, workforce identity, and identity governance (Okta IGA, formerly AtSpoke). Competes with Linx at the IAM/identity governance layer but as part of a much wider identity portfolio anchored by SSO and access management.

TypeBroad incumbent
Description

Microsoft's identity and access management platform (including Entra ID Governance and Permissions Management) bundled into the broader Microsoft 365 and Azure ecosystem. Represents the most significant bundling threat to Linx in mid-market and Microsoft-heavy enterprises.

TypeBroad incumbent
Description

Leader in privileged access management (PAM) that has expanded into broader identity security and identity governance. Competes with Linx in the privileged/standing-access use cases and increasingly in converged identity security, but as a much larger incumbent with a PAM-anchored portfolio.

TypeDirect peer
Description

Identity governance and administration vendor (One Identity Manager) that competes in the same modern IGA category as Linx. Both target enterprise identity lifecycle, access certification, and governance use cases across hybrid cloud/on-prem environments.

TypeEmerging player
Description

Identity security platform focused on authorization and access intelligence across cloud, SaaS, and data systems. Comparable to Linx in modern identity-data-graph architecture and enterprise focus, with partial overlap in non-human identity and data access governance use cases.

TypeEmerging player
Description

Cloud-native identity governance and access-request platform targeting the same modern IGA buyer as Linx. Competes on lifecycle automation, access reviews, and JIT provisioning, with comparable AI-assist features but smaller scale and traction than Linx.

TypeEmerging player
Description

Identity security and access management platform focused on least-privilege, access requests, and just-in-time provisioning for engineering and cloud infrastructure teams. Overlaps with Linx on JIT access and identity lifecycle management, with a developer-leaning ICP.

TypeBroad incumbent
Description

Privileged access management (PAM) and identity security vendor with overlapping coverage of standing-privilege reduction and identity governance workflows. Competes with Linx on privileged identity use cases but as a broader PAM portfolio rather than an AI-native governance platform.

CTechLinx: “The future of security researchers is the same future where we treat AI agentsLinx Security's security researcher Roy Itzhaky discusses the company's identity security platform and its research team's work on AI agents. The team developed a capability to identify AI agent owners, which helped an organization prevent an attack. Itzhaky envisions a future where security researchers treat AI agents like people.CTechIsrael’s cyber industry bets identity will become the next AI security battlegroundIsraeli cybersecurity startups are racing to build identity infrastructure for the AI era, as autonomous AI agents and software bots create new security challenges that existing identity platforms were not designed to address. The market received a major validation when cybersecurity company Cyera acquired Oasis Security for $1 billion, marking one of the largest transactions in Israel's cybersecurity sector and highlighting the strategic importance of securing non-human identities. Multiple Israeli startups including NewCore, Oak, Linx Security, and others have collectively raised hundreds of millions of dollars to address the governance and access challenges posed by AI systems operating at scale within enterprises.PrwebLinx Security Announces Integration with Snowflake to Solve the Trust Gap in Agentic AILinx Security announced a new integration with Snowflake that enables enterprises to connect, monitor, and control third-party AI agent access to business-critical systems under existing identity governance frameworks. The integration addresses a widening identity risk gap created as AI agents autonomously initiate actions, pull sensitive data, and call other systems without human oversight at every step.
