NeuralTrust opens London office to expand UK AI agent security

NeuralTrust said on Sept. 7, 2026, that it has opened a dedicated office in London to expand its UK presence and support customers securing AI agents.

The Barcelona-headquartered company said the office at 167 Great Portland Street will serve as a hub for UK customers, partners and hiring. It said the move is aimed at financial services, technology and enterprise clients in the region.

The announcement comes as more companies move from testing AI tools to running autonomous agents in production. In its release, NeuralTrust said that shift can create visibility gaps for traditional security tools. It also said a misconfigured or compromised agent can leak sensitive data, take an unauthorized action or be manipulated through prompt injection, a method in which attackers try to steer a model with crafted text.

NeuralTrust said the London office follows a $20 million seed round it raised in June 2026. The company described that financing as the largest cybersecurity seed round raised by an EU company to date. It said the new office is a direct result of that growth and part of its broader international expansion.

The company said it plans to hire across sales, customer success and engineering in the UK over the coming months. It also said its platform includes TrustGate, TrustGuard and TrustTest, and that it counts global banks, airlines, energy companies and government agencies among its customers.

Co-founder and CEO Joan Vendrell said AI agents create a new kind of risk that traditional security tools were not designed to catch, and said the UK understands that risk earlier than most.

UK Managing Director Cameron Brown said the office will help the company work more closely with banks, airlines and other enterprises already deploying agents in production. NeuralTrust said the London office is meant to support that work as it builds its UK team.

The release also said NeuralTrust has offices in London and New York. It cited Gartner as predicting that by 2027, 40% of enterprises will demote or decommission autonomous AI agents because governance gaps surface after production issues, but that figure was presented only in the company’s release.
