P-Secure Secures €3M to Scale Europe's First Automated Background Screening Platform

HELLERUP, Denmark – August 12, 2025P-Secure, the security startup revolutionising background screening with automated security technology, has secured €3 million in funding. The investment will accelerate deployment of P-Secure's automated background screening software, developed by former Danish intelligence professionals to enhance security capabilities for critical infrastructure operators across Europe.

The round included backing from Final Frontier, the Nordic space and defence VC fund backed by former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, alongside Ugly Duckling Ventures and the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark (EIFO).

P-Secure's automated software directly addresses Europe's critical requirement for scalable security screening capabilities that operate with complete GDPR compliance, serving 80+ customers including Copenhagen Airport, SAS, and SAAB whilst maintaining 24/7 system availability.

“The idea is that once our customers use our software, they can conduct their own automated background checks in minutes instead of days,” says Co-founder and CEO of P-Secure, Lars Andreasen. “Furthermore, it is very important to note that the customers don’t have to outsource this sensitive process to a third party, and they themselves own the data,” he continues.

Developed by Intelligence Veterans, for Critical Infrastructure

Founded by former Danish intelligence professionals who witnessed the growing espionage threats against European interests and critical infrastructure firsthand, P-Secure was created with a clear mission: democratise background screening across Europe's critical infrastructure, whilst maintaining the highest security and compliance standards.

"We have no direct competitors in Europe, but what we offer is essential, with new EU directives and legislation on protection of critical infrastructure, there is growing pressure on companies and public authorities. Here we see an increasing need for easier, faster and data-secure background checks," says Lars Andreasen.

Strategic Validation from Security Leaders

The investment round demonstrates strong validation from both intelligence community veterans and private sector stakeholders. Led by former counterintelligence chief Lars Andreasen alongside veterans from Danish police and defence establishments, P-Secure's leadership team provides unparalleled expertise in threat assessment and security protocols.

"P-Secure is market-leading in Denmark on both automation and security levels. The company is based on deep domain knowledge and specialisation in espionage threats and security," notes Simon Frederik Øelund, tech investor at EIFO.

Accelerating European Expansion

The €3 million funding enables P-Secure to accelerate expansion across Nordic and European markets, with plans to scale operations and capture first-mover advantage before competitors enter the automated background screening space. The company's platform addresses urgent timeline requirements facing European operators under new regulatory mandates.

Through extensive validation across Denmark's most security-conscious organisations, P-Secure has built Europe's most comprehensive automated background screening platform serving aviation, energy, telecommunications, finance, and defence sectors across 11 EU-mandated infrastructure sectors.

Final Frontier's investment continues the fund's strategy of backing European startups building critical technologies across the security and defence value chain.
