Dawnguard has emerged from stealth with $3 million in pre-seed funding to embed AI-driven security into system architecture from day zero. Founded by cybersecurity veterans from IBM, Microsoft, Amazon, and the military, the platform automates secure design and enforcement across the entire IT lifecycle. The funding, led by 9900 Capital, will help Dawnguard expand its engineering team and scale its architecture-first approach to cybersecurity.
