Axiom raises $7 million Seed round for IAMOps platform
The Israeli startup has developed an Identity and Access Management platform that automatically orchestrates Cloud and SaaS operations
Israeli startup Axiom announced $7 million in Seed funding on Tuesday led by S Capital alongside notable angel investors. The company also launched its Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform for Cloud and SaaS authorization.
Axiom offers Dev, Sec, and Ops teams an IAMOps platform that automatically orchestrates Cloud and SaaS IAM operations to scale least privilege capabilities while minimizing operational overhead and user friction.
The company was founded in 2021 by Itay Mesika and Ilan Dardik, who met during their military service in the Israeli air force in 2013. Mesika and Dardik subsequently worked in several industry roles and led teams in fintech and infrastructure companies.
“We experienced the cloud and SaaS authorization problems that many companies consistently struggle with first-hand,” said Axiom co-founder and CEO Itay Mesika. “We developed a user-friendly platform that automatically orchestrates cloud and SaaS IAM operations to scale the least privilege while minimizing operational overhead and friction.”
Additional investors in Axiom include Srinath Kuruvadi, Head of Cloud Security at Netflix; Nadir Izrael and Yevgeny Dibrov, founders of Armis; Slavik Markovich, Rishi Bhargava, Dan Sarel, and Guy Rinat, founders of Demisto; and Ofer Smadari, the co-founder and CEO of Torq.
“Existing IAM solutions mostly focus on post-mortem visibility of the issues or access to the same overprivileged roles,” said Axiom co-founder and CTO Ilan Dardik. “Axiom brings a holistic approach to make authorization seamless, scalable, and secure.”
