Cloud Security Platform Arch0 Bags $1.25 Mn In Pre-Seed Round

Arch0, a cloud security platform, has raised USD 1.25 million in a pre-seed funding round, led by Leo Capital. The round also saw participation from Village Global, Indian Silicon Valley Capital, Appreciate Capital, SuperMorpheus, and notable angel investors.

Founded in late 2022, Arch0 introduces a transformative approach that centralises identity as the foundational element of cloud security, embedding proactive and automated security measures across the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

Speaking about the company’s core problem statement, Nithin Jois, CEO & Co-founder, Arch0 said, “We are transforming cloud security, shifting from static daily dashboards to providing dynamic, real-time insights accessible anytime, wherever users are. We're not just offering a platform but embedding security as a fundamental layer of the cloud experience. Our proprietary AI-powered solution provides an immediate understanding of the 'who, what, when, where, and how' of each security incident, ensuring issues are addressed before they escalate.”

Arch0’s solution goes over and above a 'code-to-cloud' strategy, operating autonomously and furnishing comprehensive insights into every security incident. This capability ensures swift, effective remediation, empowering businesses to effortlessly elevate their cloud security, enhancing resilience and compliance.


 


Commenting on their investment in Arch0, Ravi Srivastava, Partner, Leo Capital said, “In the increasingly intricate world of cloud technology, enterprises deal with numerous emerging threats on a daily basis. For a robust and efficient defence against potent cyberattacks, it is paramount for tech-oriented companies to harness AI for early detection and prevention of security threats. With its AI-powered security solution and precision through real-time insights on threats, Arch0 is well-placed to become a distinct cloud security platform in the industry.”


 


As its immediate goal, Arch0 strives to introduce enterprise-grade security to medium-sized enterprises (MSEs) managing sensitive data and navigating stringent regulations. For the longer term, its vision extends further as it plans to rapidly evolve its offerings to address the complex security challenges faced by larger enterprises.


 


The startup plans to allocate the raised capital for attracting and onboarding exceptional talent for its core team. Additionally, a substantial portion of the funds will be deployed towards advancing the use of AI in cloud security. Arch0 also plans on strengthening its marketing and educational initiatives to educate users about the nuances of cloud security, the role of AI, and best practices for safeguarding digital assets. Through this, the startup aims to create a more informed, secure, and resilient ecosystem for its users.
