Dedge Security raises €4M Seed for Web3 security solution

Spanish startup Dedge Security has raised a €4 million seed funding round, led by venture firm Tritemius.

Dedge Security is the first ASPM (Application Security Posture Management) platform specifically designed for Web3 environments. 

Founded in Spain by Rubén Jiménez and Paco Moral, former leaders of Randed (acquired by Netskope), the company offers an end-to-end solution to protect smart contracts, decentralised applications, and blockchain infrastructure throughout their entire lifecycle.

Its platform unifies AppSec and DevOps, providing continuous security, automated intelligence, and real-time visibility from code to chain. 

It offers protection from code to node, integrates security into CI/CD pipelines, and provides real-time visibility into risks throughout the dApp lifecycle. This not only protects what is already deployed but also accompanies and secures the entire evolution of Web3 applications from development to on-chain execution.

“We are building breakthrough technology and a top-tier team to solve one of the most complex challenges in the Web3 ecosystem. This investment gives us the boost we need to accelerate that journey,” says Rubén Jiménez, co-founder and CEO of Dedge Security.

“We want to be the go-to security partner for developers, companies, and institutions committed to Web3. This funding round brings us one step closer to that goal,” adds Jiménez.

Luis Pastor, CEO and co-founder of Tritemius, adds:

“Cybersecurity is critical to the development and mass adoption of Web3, a sector still defining its maturity standards.

At Tritemius, we invested in Dedge because their team — deeply experienced and proven in cybersecurity — is perfectly positioned to tackle these challenges and become a market leader.”
