SolidCore.ai Emerges from Stealth with Seed Funding to Close Enterprise GenAI Trust Gap

MENLO PARK, Calif., Sept. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 70% of legal, compliance and privacy leaders called rapid generative AI adoption their top concern.

SolidCore.ai was established last year by longtime cybersecurity leaders Eric Chiu and Hemma Prafullchandra to empower enterprises and other large organizations to build and deploy GenAI applications with confidence.

SolidCore gives enterprises an immutable system of record, fully within the client's cloud environment, which serves as the foundation for robust risk identification, tracking and resolution. This comprehensive solution lets enterprises secure the entire process of deploying LLM-based apps and agents.

SolidCore addresses the critical gap between rapid GenAI adoption and enterprise security and GRC requirements by providing real-time visibility of every LLM prompt and response, continuous monitoring, and audit-ready evidence, all without slowing development and deployment velocity.

This means organizations will be instantly alerted if their GenAI applications access and share unauthorized information. CIOs will be notified of a new GenAI project that hasn't gone through the governance process, or if an existing application is reconfigured to use an unauthorized model.

Teams can even get alerts if their GenAI applications are handling an overwhelming number of requests, which can mean a denial of service attack is underway or alert for finance.

"Enterprises are facing enormous pressure to capture the value of GenAI or risk being passed by the competition. With SolidCore, they can deploy GenAI applications at the speed innovation demands, confident that threats and compliance risks will be flagged in real time," said Eric Chiu, co-founder and CEO of SolidCore.ai. ...
