Copenhagen-based startup Moxso, which analyzes employee behavior to identify cyber risks and deliver targeted, real-time security training, has raised $5.5 million in a seed round to expand its operations in European markets.
- Established in 2021 in Copenhagen, Moxso is a cybersecurity startup that analyzes employee behavior to identify and mitigate human risk factors.
- Its platform runs continuous simulations of phishing attacks, monitors employee responses in real time, and delivers targeted training only where it’s needed.
- By integrating with common workplace tools, Moxso automates training and tracking, producing measurable “resilience scores” that show which employees are most at risk. The system is designed to turn employees into a first line of defense, rather than relying on generic, one-off security training.
Details of the deal
- Moxso’s investors are Seed Capital, a Danish VC for early-stage tech startups; Ugly Duckling Ventures, which supports high-growth companies; D2 Fund, an early-stage tech investment fund; and Geeta Schmidt, former CEO of Humio, now investor and board member.
- Moxso will use the €4.7 million to enhance its AI-driven risk intelligence platform, enter additional European markets, and increase staff in engineering, product, and commercial roles.
- The funding supports the company’s goal of delivering adaptive, targeted cybersecurity solutions while expanding its operational footprint.
