2025 wasn’t just a milestone year for the SAFE One platform: it was the year the entire cyber risk management landscape shifted. Every major shift in SAFE’s platform this year was driven by direct customer feedback, deeper market understanding, and the recognition that cyber risk programs cannot scale without automation. 

SAFE One matured into a more intuitive, more integrated, and more autonomous platform — pulling together risk, exposures, third parties, controls, telemetry, financial impact, and remediation into one unified system.

Here are seven milestones that defined how SAFE helped evolve the market in 2025: 

  1. SAFE Secures $70M in Series C and Commits to Building CyberAGI
  2. SAFE Acquires Balbix to Create the Ultimate CTEM Platform
  3. Forrester and Gartner Recognize SAFE as a Market Leader
  4. SAFE Launches the Industry’s First Fully Autonomous TPRM Platform, Powered by 25+ AI Agents
  5. SAFE Launches Autonomous CTEM at BlackHat USA
  6. SAFE CRQ Evolves Into a Cyber Decision Intelligence Engine
  7. SAFEOne Reaches Unprecedented Scale Across the Global Enterprise

Together, these milestones show how SAFE helped the market cross a critical threshold—from fragmented risk management to autonomous cyber risk at scale.

1. SAFE Secures $70M in Series C and Commits to Building CyberAGI

In one of the toughest funding environments in recent history, SAFE raised $70M in Series C funding, led by Avataar Ventures. But this milestone wasn’t just about capital — it was about clarity of vision. SAFE committed to building CyberAGI: an autonomous, agentic AI system capable of reasoning, prioritizing, and orchestrating action across the entire cyber risk lifecycle. In 2025, that vision moved from aspiration to architecture — shaping how SAFE designs every product, agent, and workflow.

2. SAFE Acquires Balbix to Create the Ultimate CTEM Platform

SAFE acquired Balbix, a recognized Leader in Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM). SAFE and Balbix unveiled the ultimate Agentic-AI-powered cyber risk platform – one that links every exposure, control failure, and vulnerability to real business impact, a capability unmatched by any CTEM and CRQ vendor today. This positions SAFE squarely as a proactive security platform, advancing its three pillars – visibility, prioritization, and remediation – as highlighted by Forrester.

3. Forrester and Gartner Recognize SAFE as a Market Leader

The industry validated what customers knew. In 2025, SAFE was recognized as a leader across CRQ, TPRM, and autonomous cyber risk management:

4. SAFE Launches the Industry’s First Fully Autonomous TPRM Platform, Powered by 25+ AI Agents

If there was one defining product moment in 2025, it was this: Third-party risk management became autonomous. SAFE launched the industry’s first fully autonomous TPRM platform, powered by 25+ specialized AI agents that guide the entire lifecycle — from vendor discovery and evidence parsing to questionnaire automation, issue creation, and regulatory alignment.

“SAFE was the solution we needed to move beyond manual spreadsheets and truly modernize our third-party risk management. The ability to automate our vendor assessments and quantify our recommendations to leadership has been a game-changer for our team.” — Mike Eisenman, Senior Manager (Security Assurance), Kyriba

5. SAFE Launches Autonomous CTEM at BlackHat USA

At BlackHat USA 2025, SAFE unveiled the world’s first Autonomous CTEM platform. Built with agentic AI at its core, SAFE CTEM brings autonomy to asset discovery, exposure analysis, attack-path reasoning, remediation prioritization, and mobilization.

This marked a clear shift for the market: from manual exposure tracking to continuous, AI-driven threat exposure management.

6. SAFE CRQ Evolves Into a Cyber Decision Intelligence Engine

SAFE’s Cyber Risk Quantification capabilities took a major leap forward in 2025.
With richer telemetry, AI-generated insights, GenAI risk modeling, and enhanced “See What Changed” intelligence, SAFE matured CRQ into a real-time decision engine. Enterprises now use SAFE to prioritize remediation, justify investments, track risk reduction, and align security decisions to business impact.

7. SAFEOne Reaches Unprecedented Scale Across Global Enterprises

Across 2025, SAFE maintained an average DAU/MAU ratio of 20.5%—a reflection not just of engagement, but of impact. CISOs and risk leaders returned to SAFE daily because it directly informed decisions on prioritization, remediation, and how their teams were performing against risk. In fact, CISOs spent an average of 9 minutes on SAFE. That’s not usage, that’s reliance.

SAFE’s impact in 2025 wasn’t just about innovation — it was about scale.

  • $7 trillion in revenue under management
  • 70,000+ third-party vendors assessed
  • 45,000+ risk scenarios modeled
  • 80M+ signals processed per day
  • 2,300+ integrations across users

Today, SAFE’s Integration Marketplace boasts 100+ integrations including Armis, Claroty xDome, Rubrik, PAN Cortex XDR, Tanium Comply, Wiz, AWS Security Hub, Tenable VM, Axonius, IronClad CLM, OneTrust, ServiceNow ITSM, ServiceNow TPRM, Jira ITSM, and SMTP. These integrations make SAFE one of the most interconnected cyber risk platforms in the enterprise ecosystem.

Looking Ahead: 2025 Built the Foundation — Autonomy Accelerates Next

Across TPRM, CRQ, and CTEM, one message was clear in 2025: Agentic, AI-native cyber risk management is no longer optional. SAFE’s journey this year didn’t just advance the platform — it changed expectations for what cyber risk management must become. The next era is autonomous. And SAFE is building it.
