In a world where one wrong click can cost a company millions, cybersecurity isn’t just a tech problem; it’s a survival strategy. And while most firms are still juggling fragmented vendors and reactive solutions, one Bengaluru-based startup is rewriting the playbook.
Meet Mitigata, India’s first full-stack cyber resilience platform that’s fusing cybersecurity and insurance into one AI-powered shield. Founded in 2021 by Mohit Anand, Sarthak Dubey, Mayank Morya, and Akshit Kaushik, Mitigata is building the digital equivalent of a superhero suit for businesses and individuals alike.
And with a fresh $5.9 million Series A led by Nexus Venture Partners, they’re just getting started.
The Founders Who Decided Fear Shouldn’t Be a Business Model
Before Mitigata, Mohit Anand and Sarthak Dubey were already deep in the trenches of tech and security. Mohit, an IIT BHU grad, and Sarthak, from Manipal Institute of Technology, saw firsthand how companies were treating cyber insurance and security as two separate cost centers, and paying the price.
So they built Mitigata to fix that. Their goal? Turn fear into fortitude and give businesses the tools to fight back with confidence.
Fun fact: Mohit and Sarthak made it to Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2025, proving that cyber resilience can be both impactful and headline-worthy.

The Funding That’s Fueling the Fire
In a strategic move to fortify its mission of transforming cyber resilience, Mitigata successfully secured $5.9 million in a Series A funding round led by Nexus Venture Partners, with additional support from Titan Capital and WEH Ventures. This crucial investment will be channeled into enhancing the capabilities of Mitigata’s AI-driven platform, enriching its suite of cybersecurity and insurance services, and recruiting top-tier talent to drive innovation.

This means:
- Better alignment between risk and coverage

It’s not just smart, it’s necessary.
