Eye Security, a Hague-based cybersecurity platform serving European businesses, has secured €60m in Series C funding to accelerate its expansion across Europe.
The round was led by Belgian investment company Sofina, which is acquiring a minority stake in the business. It also saw a substantially larger commitment from existing Dutch backer TIN Capital, with continued participation from J.P. Morgan Growth Equity Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners, both of whom had previously invested in the company.
The capital arrives as European organisations contend with mounting cyber threats, stricter regulatory demands and a push to lessen reliance on non-European digital infrastructure.
Eye Security positions itself as a provider of enterprise-grade cybersecurity for growing companies and larger organisations alike, without the cost or complexity typically associated with building such capabilities internally.
Proceeds from the round will go towards expanding into additional European markets, broadening the company’s product offering through strategic partnerships, developing AI tools that support its human analysts, and growing its workforce across engineering, threat intelligence and customer-facing teams.
Since its founding in 2020, the firm has built a customer base exceeding a thousand organisations spanning the BENELUX and DACH regions and further afield.
The company’s Cyber Guard platform pairs round-the-clock human-led threat response with AI-driven detection, an approach it says is necessary given that AI-enabled cyberattacks have nearly doubled during 2025.
Rather than locking customers into a closed ecosystem, the platform is designed to integrate with widely used EDR, cloud security and infrastructure tools already deployed by clients. Because the company is headquartered and operated within the EU, customer data remains stored inside European borders, which it says provides reassurance for organisations managing GDPR and NIS2 obligations.
Eye Security also distinguishes itself by combining managed detection and response, incident response and threat intelligence with its own in-house cyber insurance underwriting.
The new funding is expected to benefit multiple parts of the company’s ecosystem. Customers should see continued investment in integrations, threat intelligence and new capabilities as the threat landscape evolves. Partners, including managed service providers and resellers, stand to benefit from the platform’s open architecture and partner-first model. More broadly, the investment supports continued spending on talent, research and innovation intended to strengthen cybersecurity across the European market.
Eye Security founder and CEO Job Kuijpers said, “Cybersecurity is entering a new era. AI is accelerating both the threats organisations face and the speed at which they must respond.
“Europe needs sovereign cybersecurity solutions built on intelligence-grade expertise, trusted technology, rapid execution and seamless cyber insurance. That is what we are building at Eye Security.”
