Torq Acquires Jit to Advance AI Security Operations

Torq, a prominent player in AI-driven Security Operations Center (SOC) platforms, has significantly expanded its capabilities through the acquisition of Jit, a cybersecurity firm specializing in AI Context Graph technology. This strategic move is designed to accelerate the development of autonomous SecOps, enabling more sophisticated, context-aware threat detection and response.

The integration of Jit's advanced AI Context Graph into Torq's existing agentic AI infrastructure promises to deliver continuously updated contextual investigations. This enriched data will incorporate crucial organizational elements such as internal data, operational workflows, business objectives, and real-time enterprise conditions, moving beyond simple static relationships between assets and users.

This acquisition positions Torq to offer a platform that transcends traditional security limitations. By understanding the dynamic operational context, the enhanced platform can facilitate AI-driven investigations and automated responses from a singular, unified source of truth. This level of contextual intelligence is vital in today's complex threat environment, where rapid and precise action is paramount.

The implications for enterprise security teams are substantial. With greater precision and traceability, automated investigation, triage, and response workflows can be implemented with increased confidence. Torq anticipates this will empower organizations to progress towards autonomous containment and proactive threat prevention, enhancing operational consistency and reducing risk.

This development follows a period of strong growth for Torq, which recently secured $140 million in Series D funding, valuing the company at $1.2 billion. The company's AI agents are already actively managing millions of security tasks daily within Fortune 500 organizations, demonstrating the scalability and effectiveness of its technology. Notable clients include Carvana, Dolby, Domino’s Pizza, Macy’s, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Prudential, Siemens, Uber, and Virgin Atlantic.

Jit, founded by David Melamed and Aviram Shmueli, had previously raised nearly $40 million from notable investors such as Insight Partners and Tiger Global. Led by CEO Shai Horovitz, formerly CRO at Cybereason, Jit brings a wealth of engineering and AI expertise that will be instrumental in accelerating Torq's product roadmap for AI-powered cybersecurity automation and enterprise-scale threat response.

Ofer Smadari, CEO and Co-Founder of Torq, emphasized the transformative nature of the acquisition, stating, "By uniting Jit’s groundbreaking AI Context Graphs and Agentic technologies with the Torq AI SOC Platform, we’re creating the ultimate proactive cybersecurity defensive offering." He further highlighted the platform's ability to deliver "unprecedented organization-specific clarity, adaptability, and protection in a world where every second counts."
