Twenty Raises $100M at $1B -- America's First VC-Backed Cyber Warfare Startup

Twenty Technologies, an Arlington-based startup building automated offensive cyber operations for the U.S. military and intelligence community, raised a $100 million Series B at a $1 billion valuation led by Accel, with Point72 Ventures, Caffeinated Capital, and Friends & Family Capital participating. The round, which brings total funding to $138 million, mints a defense-tech unicorn in a category most VCs avoided a few years ago.
