Founded in 2021, Moxso specializes in transforming human behavior into real-time risk intelligence, analyzing live signals to build dynamic risk profiles and deliver targeted interventions to make employees active defenders against cyberattacks.

With the new investment, Moxso aims to accelerate product development in AI-driven risk intelligence, expand into new European markets, and grow its team across engineering, product, and go-to-market functions.

Founded by Rune Boye Knudsen and Mikkel Lindblom, Moxso currently operates in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Finland, with plans to expand across Europe.

The funding round was led by Seed Capital, with participation from Ugly Duckling Ventures, D2 Fund, and the addition of former Humio CEO Geeta Schmidt as an investor and board member, bringing notable cybersecurity expertise.

Copenhagen-based cybersecurity startup Moxso has raised €4.7 million in seed funding led by Seed Capital, marking their first investment in cybersecurity under Seed Capital's new strategic focus.

This funding follows a year of rapid growth for Moxso, during which they quadrupled staff and tripled revenue to double-digit millions, supporting their global expansion plans.

The company emphasizes its real-time, behavior-based approach to cybersecurity training, criticizing traditional static methods as less effective.

The company's approach addresses the fact that every cyberattack begins with human decision-making, and their technology helps shift those decisions in favor of security, emphasizing the importance of human behavior in cybersecurity.

Moxso's platform aims to replace traditional static cybersecurity training with a real-time, adaptive model that measures impact and responds to changing employee behavior, addressing the limitations of conventional methods.
