The funding will accelerate the development and international rollout of Key2XS’ innovative SaaS platform, which connects electronic locking systems like ASSA ABLOY’s CLIQ®️ and iLOQ®️ with identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID, SailPoint, OKTA, OpenText/NetIQ and One Identity. The platform leverages AI to automate key planning and access control, bridging the gap between physical and digital security.
“This investment marks a major milestone for Key2XS,” said Reinier van der Drift, CEO and co-founder. “CTRL+ALT+INVEST’s confidence in our vision validates the need for smarter, auditable, and compliant access control especially in critical infrastructure sectors facing the new EU regulations like CER and NIS2.”
CTRL+ALT+INVEST, known for backing early-stage cybersecurity, AI and infrastructure tech, sees Key2XS as a strategic addition to its portfolio. “We back teams solving overlooked but high-impact security problems,” said Pieter Jansen, co-founder and partner at CTRL+ALT+INVEST. “Key2XS turns a manual, error-prone process into an identity-driven control plane—exactly what utilities, transport operators, and public institutions need.”
The capital will be used to scale operations, expand the partner ecosystem, and further enhance the AI-driven key planning engine.
