Geordie raises $6.5m to tackle agentic AI security risks

Geordie, a cybersecurity start-up, has come out of stealth with a $6.5m seed round to support enterprises in managing the security challenges of agentic AI.

The seed funding was co-led by Ten Eleven Ventures, a specialist investor in cybersecurity, and global investment firm General Catalyst, with further support from several angel investors.

The company has developed an agent-native security platform designed to help enterprises adopt autonomous AI agents safely. These systems promise productivity and operational benefits but also bring new risks, including unpredictable behaviour, non-deterministic decision-making and goal drift.

Geordie’s platform aims to address these issues by providing visibility, risk intelligence and proactive control over deployed agents across workflows. Its vendor-agnostic design allows it to detect agents across all frameworks, map their behaviour and assess risks in real time. The system’s “Beam” engine also intervenes when necessary, guiding agent decisions to align with enterprise policies without disrupting business operations.

Ten Eleven Ventures general partner Dave Palmer said, “There’s no established playbook for how to deploy agentic AI now. Many times, the limited visibility and lack of understanding of potential risks are key blockers for many CISOs and technology leaders.

“Geordie supports these leaders so that organizations can bring strategic innovation in-house confidently and regain control of their rapidly changing technology environment. The security Geordie brings will be a critical part of safely embracing the agentic AI revolution destined for the decade ahead.”

Geordie co-founder and CEO Henry Comfort said, “Our platform, purpose-built for agents, ensures enterprises don’t have to choose between innovation and security. By offering real-time visibility into agent activity and aligning with enterprise policies and external frameworks, we’re building trust and providing the tools necessary for safe AI adoption.”
