Nucleon Security Secures €3M to Drive Expansion Across Africa and Beyond
This fundraising will enable Nucleon Security to industrialize its agentic AI technology across all its solutions, accelerate its commercial development in Europe and Africa, while continuing its strategic R&D efforts.
The cost of cyberattacks could reach $10.5 trillion in 2025 according to Cybersecurity Ventures, while the talent shortage remains acute: nearly 4 million cybersecurity professionals are missing worldwide, according to the World Bank.
In response, Nucleon Security offers a new approach to proactive and automated cybersecurity, already adopted by more than a hundred clients across three continents.

A Zero Trust platform covering the full defense cycle
Nucleon Security’s platform covers the entire defense cycle: endpoint protection with its Zero Trust EDR, blocking suspicious activity by default; 24/7 managed monitoring via sovereign MDR, ensuring local and independent handling of critical data; advanced malware analysis with Malprob AI, identifying new threats before they spread; and ScorX, a technology that prioritizes alerts and highlights critical threats.
Adaptive cybersecurity powered by Agentic AI
With its Zero Trust approach, Nucleon Security continuously adapts protection to the organizations’ real use, offering contextual and scalable security. This is reinforced by agentic AI, which goes beyond traditional AI: instead of only analyzing and alerting, it acts as an autonomous agent, capable of analyzing, deciding, acting, and learning continuously. At Nucleon Security, this AI serves as a true co-pilot for cybersecurity teams across the entire cycle: prevention, detection, response, and remediation.
