Frame Security: $50M to Fight AI Social Engineering
Summary
Frame Security has launched with $50 million in funding to combat AI-powered social engineering and deepfake attacks. The company's platform uses artificial intelligence to strengthen employee defenses. Here's the thing: current security awareness training, like quarterly slide decks, isn't keeping up. About 90% of data breaches still involve human error, even though most organizations have awareness programs. Generative AI makes these attacks cheaper to create. For example, 43% of cybersecurity leaders encountered deepfake audio calls in 2025, and 37% saw deepfake video calls. Attackers impersonate colleagues to steal credentials or gain access. Frame's platform uses AI to create realistic attack simulations and personalized training. When new attack patterns emerge, security teams can generate relevant training quickly. The system also analyzes employee behavior to identify specific threats each worker is likely to face. The bottom line is that AI has made social engineering attacks easier to create and harder to detect, meaning new solutions are needed to address human risk.
