Munich-based Secresolve has closed an oversubscribed $12 million Series A led by Alstin Capital, with participation from Bayern Kapital and continued backing from existing investor neosfer. As revealed to TFN, Secresolve declared, “We can’t disclose the exact valuation at this time. Including this Series A, Secresolve has raised $17M in total funding.”
The new capital will accelerate Secresolve’s expansion across Europe and deepen its capabilities. Munguia outlined the roadmap: “Over the next 12 months, Secresolve will focus on deepening our AI-native capabilities, scaling the security automation platform and CISO-as-a-Service offering, and accelerating expansion beyond our strong DACH base while adding coverage for EU AI Act, NIS2, ISO 42001 and more.”
It does more than automation
The platform automates the heavy lift for certifications such as ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR, SOC 2, DORA and ISO 42001, cutting the typical certification timeline dramatically. Secresolve pairs automation with a CISO-as-a-Service model, delivering continuous monitoring, incident management, security questionnaires, gap assessments, policy reviews, access controls, cloud scanning and penetration testing.
Highlighting the pain point, Munguia explained, “For European SMBs and mid-market companies, achieving security certifications like ISO 27001, NIS 2, TISAX, SOC 2 and more has traditionally been a slow, manual, and resource-draining process, often taking 12–18 months and costing companies enterprise deals while they wait. Secresolve eliminates this bottleneck.”
The company further added, “With Secresolve, companies reduce up to 90% of compliance work, going from months to just a few weeks to finish their certification. C-Level personnel and engineering teams save hundreds of hours of manual work. Security questionnaire response time is cut by 50% and sales cycles accelerate by 3x. Across the board, Secresolve customers achieve 100% audit success rates.”
How was the idea born?
Secresolve was co-founded in 2021 by three Munich-based founders who came toreceiveher through their local network with a shared frustration about broken compliance processes. Fabiola Munguia leads strategy, fundraising, and sales. She brings experience in B2B sales and growth at Siemens and BMW, and five years in cybersecurity and compliance automation. She holds a Master’s in Finance & Informatics from TU Munich and has been recognized on Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe (Tech) and Crunchbase’s 2023 Influential Women in Sales list.
Grigory Emelianov, CTO, leads product and technology. He previously built products at Amazon and MAN before spconcludeing five years architecting scalable B2B SaaS infrastructure in compliance and cybersecurity. He holds a Master’s in Management from TU Munich.
Branko Džakula, CISO, is a security leader with 15+ years of experience across companies like Kaia Health and Air Serbia. He has guided over 100 companies through ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, and GDPR certifications. He holds a Master’s in Computer and Information Systems Security from the University of Montenegro.
The company has evolved from a GRC automation tool into a full conclude-to-conclude security compliance platform serving hundreds of customers across more than 15 European countries. Clients include WorkMotion, Veremark, Trafigura and Orianda (Valantic Group), along with banks, oil and energy firms and multinational groups.
A commitment to diversity
Regarding diversity statistics, the company disclosed, “Secresolve was founded by three non-EU founders. One of their three founders is female (Fabiola, our CEO). Also, 50% of their leadership team and workforce is female. They have team members from 15 different countries.”
“We started by assisting companies receive certified quick and straightforward,” declared Fabiola Munguia, CEO and Co-Founder of Secresolve. “Now we’re becoming their trusted security and compliance partner for everything that comes after. Our vision is to solidify Secresolve as Europe’s leader in conclude-to-conclude security compliance – one that grows with companies from their first ISO 27001 certification through their entire security and compliance journey.”
“With NIS2, DORA, and the EU AI Act, companies are facing a compliance wave that many underestimate. Secresolve has built the infrastructure to manage this complexity, not just once, but permanently. The platform combines AI-native automation with real CISO expertise and grows with regulatory requirements. As lead investor, we are convinced by this positioning as essential compliance infrastructure for European growth companies,” declares Andreas Schenk, Partner at Alstin Capital.
