Cy Khormaee is Co-Founder and CEO of AegisAI, an AI-native cybersecurity company redefining enterprise email security through autonomous AI agents that neutralize phishing, malware, and BEC attacks before they reach user inboxes.
Cy earned his MBA from Harvard Business School and spent over five years at Google leading product and sales for Safe Browsing, reCAPTCHA, and Web Risk, scaling those products from zero to over $100M ARR while protecting 5 billion devices.
A serial entrepreneur and AI Professor at UCLA, Cy previously founded Contastic (acquired by SugarCRM) and served as VP of Product at both Moovweb (acquired by Edgio) and Attentive, building a track record of exits and high-growth product leadership.
AegisAI raised a $13M seed round led by Accel and Foundation Capital, followed by a $36M Series A led by Battery Ventures, bringing total capital raised to $49M and validating the company's approach to AI-driven threat defense.
AegisAI's platform integrates with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace via API and reduces false positives by up to 90% compared to traditional solutions, addressing an enterprise email security market increasingly overwhelmed by AI-powered attacks.
