From October 13-15th 2026, Straiker is bringing agentic security to TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 in San Francisco as a member of the Startup Battlefield 200.
TechCrunch selected Straiker for the 2026 Startup Battlefield 200 from thousands of applications submitted by early-stage companies around the world. The 200 selected companies represent the startups TechCrunch identified as shaping the future across major technology categories, with Straiker selected in cybersecurity.
At Disrupt, we’ll be showing what enterprise AI security looks like when AI agents can discover information, call tools, access sensitive systems, and take action on their own.
Visit Straiker at booth CY21 to explore the agentic security control plane behind our platform. Discover AI gives security teams an inventory of AI agents, MCP servers, tools, Skills, and connected workflows, along with visibility into risky permissions and configurations. Ascend AI continuously tests agents against adversarial attack paths to identify vulnerabilities before they become incidents. Defend AI provides runtime protection to detect and block malicious agent behavior, while the Agentic Kill Switch gives security teams a way to take a compromised agent or fleet of agents offline when containment is required.
On Wednesday, October 14, Straiker CEO, Ankur Shah, will take the Showcase Stage for a two-minute pitch as Straiker competes in the cybersecurity category for the Best in Cybersecurity award.
Startup Battlefield has a long history of introducing early-stage companies that go on to define major technology categories. Previous alumni include Dropbox, Cloudflare, Discord, Trello, and Postmates. TechCrunch selected the 2026 Startup Battlefield 200 from thousands of applications, with Straiker among the companies selected for cybersecurity.
