Clover Security named Rising in Cyber 2026 honoree
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, May 12, 2026. Clover Security, the design-led product security company built for the Agentic SDLC, today announced its inclusion in Rising in Cyber 2026, an independent annual list launched by Notable Capital to recognize the 30 most promising private cybersecurity startups. Now in its third year, Rising in Cyber has become a trusted signal of what is actually moving the needle in enterprise security.
Unlike traditional rankings, Rising in Cyber honorees are selected through voting by 150 active CISOs and senior security executives. The result is a reliable signal of what security teams are actually adopting to address their most urgent challenges.
Clover joins a cohort that has collectively raised over $6.9 billion, according to PitchBook, and is defining the next generation of cybersecurity across critical areas including identity and access management, agentic AI security, security operations, and application defense.
The 2026 honorees were named alongside the release of the Rising in Cyber 2026 Report, produced in collaboration with Morgan Stanley. The report draws on CISO survey data and market analysis to map how the cybersecurity industry is evolving, from AI agents reshaping security operations to a historic surge in strategic M&A, and separates signal from noise for investors, operators, and security leaders.
“Security is now moving from a constraint to an enabler on how fast AI can actually scale inside the enterprise. The 150 CISOs who voted on this list understand that better than anyone,” said Oren Yunger, Managing Partner, Notable Capital. “Congratulations to this year’s Rising in Cyber honorees for earning their trust.”
Honorees will be recognized at a private event on May 12 at the New York Stock Exchange in San Francisco alongside top security leaders and investors.
“The 150 CISOs who voted on this list have validated what we live with every day: in the agentic era, engineering work moves upstream into intent, design, and the context AI agents operate in. Security has to follow,” said Alon Kollmann, CEO and co-founder of Clover Security.
Behind the recognition is a year of compounding traction for Clover. In March 2026, ServiceNow made a strategic investment in Clover and, as a customer, will be integrating Clover’s AI security agents into the ServiceNow enterprise solutions suite. Clover’s customer base has grown 4x year-over-year and now spans enterprise software, financial services, and commerce, with deployments at Expedia, Instacart, Plaid, Notion, Lemonade, Virgin Money, Neo4j, AlphaSense, and PROS. At Virgin Money, one of the UK’s largest banks, Clover runs design-led product security at 4x efficiency. Over the same twelve months, the team has more than doubled in size and continues to scale across Tel Aviv, New York, and San Francisco.
