A $1.7B exit that validated the Data Command Center category — now powering Veeam's unified data resilience and security platform.
securiti.ai ↗Securiti AI was founded in 2018 (incorporated 2019) by Rehan Jalil, a serial entrepreneur who previously founded Elastica (acquired by Blue Coat for $280M) and served as SVP of Cloud Security at Symantec. Headquartered in San Jose, CA, Securiti built the Data Command Center — a unified platform for data security, privacy, governance, and compliance across hybrid multicloud environments. The company's founding team included executives from Symantec, Cisco, and Elastica, giving it deep enterprise go-to-market credibility from the start.
Securiti raised over $156M in venture capital across a Series A (Mayfield), $50M Series B (General Catalyst and Mayfield, 2020), and $75M Series C (October 2022), with strategic investments from Capital One Ventures and Citi Ventures in 2023. In October 2025, Veeam Software announced a definitive agreement to acquire Securiti AI for $1.725 billion — a mix of cash and stock. The deal closed December 11, 2025. At closing, approximately 600 Securiti employees joined Veeam, and Rehan Jalil assumed the role of President of Security and AI at Veeam.
Securiti's core technical innovation is the Data Command Graph — a knowledge graph that automatically captures relationships between data objects, entitlements, sensitive information, AI models, and regulatory requirements across all environments. Built on this graph, the Data Command Center unified DSPM, PrivacyOps, AI trust, and governance into a single platform with 1,000+ pre-built integrations. Post-acquisition, Veeam and Securiti launched 'Agent Commander' — the first integrated solution for scaling safe AI agents — combining data resilience with AI governance in a single control layer.
The $1.725B Veeam acquisition was the defining exit in the DSPM market to date, validating both the category economics and the platform approach. Securiti's sale demonstrates that the convergence of data resilience and data security is a real enterprise buying motion: CISOs and infrastructure leaders now want a single vendor for backup, recovery, DSPM, privacy, and AI governance. For competitors, the Veeam-Securiti combination creates a formidable incumbent with 550,000 existing Veeam customers as a distribution engine. The integration's first post-close product — Agent Commander — signals that AI agent security is the next frontier where Securiti's knowledge graph architecture provides a genuine moat.
Pre-acquisition, Securiti occupied a unique position as the broadest data control platform — competing with OneTrust on privacy, Varonis on security, and BigID on governance, while offering more integration depth than any single competitor. Its $1.725B acquisition price at roughly 23x revenue reflected premium valuation for the unified platform thesis. Post-acquisition, Securiti's capabilities are now embedded in Veeam's 550,000-customer platform, fundamentally repositioning it from a standalone DSPM competitor to an integrated capability within the world's largest data resilience vendor. Remaining standalone DSPM vendors face a harder conversation when Veeam can now bundle resilience and governance together.
