Pluto Security has emerged from stealth and announced $42 million in total funding, including an approximately $34 million latest round led by Jump Capital. The company plans to spend the new capital on product development, research and expansion in the United States.

Pluto's platform gives security teams visibility into employees' AI tools, applications and agents, alongside controls that can block malicious components, restrict agent actions and prevent access to sensitive data or credentials. The company reports more than 40 enterprise customers and says it has secured more than 1 million endpoints globally.
