Oak Raises $60M for Identity Management Solutions

Israeli identity management startup Oak announced its emergence from stealth mode with $60 million in seed funding. The company was co-founded by serial entrepreneur Shai Morag and Tal Marom.

Oak is addressing the growing challenge of identity management, which has become more complex with the increasing use of AI agents. Traditional methods, including physical badges and even cloud-era identity management tools, are proving insufficient in digital environments where humans and AI agents work together.

The company is developing a unified control plane designed to govern and streamline identities across an organization. This solution aims to provide clearer visibility into who or what has access to which resources, which is critical for security and compliance.

As AI becomes more prevalent, businesses face new hurdles in identifying and managing digital identities. Oak seeks to provide a solution to this evolving "identity mess" resulting from human-machine collaboration.
