Kiteworks Acquires Bonfy.AI to Fill the AI Gap in Data Governance
Kiteworks acquired AI data-security firm Bonfy.AI, reportedly for tens of millions of dollars, to add inline AI-era data governance.
Kiteworks announced the acquisition of Bonfy.AI, an AI-native content-security platform that classifies sensitive data in real time as it moves across email, file sharing, SaaS apps, and AI agents. The deal, estimated by CTech at tens of millions of dollars, will extend Kiteworks' Data Control Plane with inline runtime policy enforcement for both human and AI-agent workflows. This is Kiteworks' eighth acquisition in five years; Bonfy was founded in early 2024, raised a $9.5 million seed round, and emerged from stealth in June 2025.
