Hidden Level Unlocks Drone Detection Future With 65M Funding Boost

Hidden Level Raises $65M to Revolutionize Drone Detection with Cutting-Edge Technology
A significant investment of $65 million in Series C funding has been secured by Hidden Level, a leading developer of advanced drone detection systems. The company’s innovative passive radar and radio frequency sensing technology is poised to transform the way we approach airspace security.
The rapid proliferation of drones has introduced significant challenges to national security and critical infrastructure protection in the United States. With this new funding, Hidden Level is well-positioned to expand its operations, hire top talent, and establish a strong international presence. The company has already secured deployments with numerous high-profile clients, including NASA, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, and the U.S. Department of Defense.
Critical infrastructure is the backbone of our nation’s security. Today’s evolving threats demand comprehensive airspace monitoring, from low-altitude drones to high-altitude aircraft and everything in between. Hidden Level’s technology offers a robust solution to this growing threat, detecting and tracking a wide range of aerial activity, including drones operating covertly as dark drones or posing as imitations.
The system can also pinpoint the location of drone operators while maintaining full compliance with Title 18 regulations, thereby safeguarding privacy and avoiding changes to existing legislation. The company’s advanced sensing solutions are designed to address a critical security gap in airspace situational awareness. With Hidden Level’s technology, military and civilian environments can benefit from real-time identification and tracking of UAV threats, even in complex and congested electromagnetic environments.
“This capability is changing the game on the battlefield,” noted Randy Glein from DFJ Growth, one of the lead investors in this funding round. “Hidden Level’s advanced technologies are providing an electronic surveillance shield for our forces and assets in harm’s way.” The investment marks a significant milestone for Hidden Level, which has secured $100 million in funding over the past 12 months.
The company’s commitment to advancing airspace security is expected to have a profound impact on national defense capabilities and public safety. As the threat landscape continues to evolve, companies like Hidden Level are playing a critical role in shaping the future of drone detection and response. With its innovative technology and strong leadership team, Hidden Level is poised to remain at the forefront of this rapidly growing market.
