NewCore raises $66M for AI agent identity management

Cybersecurity startup NewCore has secured $66 million in funding to address the growing need for identity management solutions for AI agents. As companies increasingly integrate AI into their workflows, treating them as employees rather than mere tools, NewCore aims to provide a platform that authenticates, governs, and controls these digital workers at scale. The company believes existing identity systems are ill-equipped for this new paradigm, where AI agents will operate alongside human employees. NewCore's platform is designed to manage both human and AI identities within a unified system, offering granular permissions and lifecycle controls for AI agents.
