Feroot Security Raises $14M Series A for Web Security AI

Feroot Tackles Client-Side Web Security

Feroot Security has raised $14 million in a Series A led by True Ventures to scale its AI-powered client-side web security platform. The company protects against digital skimming, data leakage, and supply chain attacks that target the client-side layer of web applications.

The Client-Side Security Blind Spot

Most web security focuses on server-side protection, leaving the client-side (the code running in users' browsers) largely unprotected. This creates vulnerability to attacks like Magecart-style digital skimming, where malicious scripts injected into web pages steal payment credentials and personal data directly from users' browsers. Feroot's platform monitors and secures the client-side layer, closing a critical gap in enterprise web security postures.

AI-Powered Threat Detection

Feroot uses AI to continuously monitor client-side scripts and detect anomalous behavior that indicates malicious activity. This automated approach is essential because modern web applications load dozens of third-party scripts (analytics, advertising, customer support widgets) that create a large and constantly changing attack surface. Manual monitoring of this environment is impractical at scale, making AI-driven security the only viable approach for comprehensive client-side protection.
