Google Cloud will get the cybersecurity platform in a $ 32 billion deal. The deal is expected to be closed in 2026, after which Wiz will merge with Google Cloud.
The acquisition of Google's focus on strengthening its security technology confirms the enhancement of cybersecurity threats and the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI). Google has also emphasized the strategic logical basis behind the acquisition, noting that the acquisition will bring Google Cloud experience in “cloud infrastructure, with deep experience of artificial intelligence and a busy record of leading security innovation in the industry to Wiz and helps make its common solutions more developing.
According to Wiz rejected a possible offer of $ 23 billion in Google last year, citing the intention to follow up on the public subscription. However, the scene this year has shifted, while the sub -subscription market remains and renewed optimism about the large acquisitions.
Thinking about the trip in a blog, the co -founder of Wiz Assaf Rappaport admitted to the difficulty of lowering these offers. Now, Wiz expects to join Google Cloud, a great acceleration in its mission to provide the best safety platform.
It also highlighted Google, this acquisition aims to enhance WIZ capabilities and expansion, which ultimately benefits customers and partners on all major cloud platforms.
What does this mean for those familiar with the planning for the institution's resources
One of the solutions that can be combined through different platforms. Google Cloud's acquisition of WIZ enhances a comprehensive security strategy that extends over multiple cloud environments. The current Wiz platform is designed to connect and provide vision and safety control elements through major cloud service providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud. Google Cloud's commitment to this multi -black approach guarantees that ERP users, who may have their own systems or applications that are distributed through various cloud infrastructure (perhaps under ERP essential on one cloud, with data lakes or specialized units on another), can benefit from a unified safety mode. This will eliminate the potential complications and security gaps that can arise from the management of varying safety tools and policies for each cloud provider.
Improved safety for original cloud applications. The acquisition aims to create a unified safety platform that combines the cloud safety platform from Wiz and Google. With ERP systems increasingly moving to the cloud, Google and Wiz joint strengths will help enhance each stage of developer of cloud applications, from protecting software instructions to strengthening CI/CD systems and infrastructure security. This is especially useful for organizations that are subject to cloud migration or those that have mixed cloud strategies that include their ERP systems.
Discover the threat that drives artificial intelligence. Google Cloud and Wiz are both artificial intelligence to improve safety. WIZ has developed a technique for actual time detection and response to cyber threats, while Google Cloud also uses artificial intelligence to expand defenses and protect from threats to and from artificial intelligence models. The acquisition of ERP users will help take advantage of the capabilities of the advanced companies to discover threats and respond to both, which reduces the risk of attacks.
