About wiz.io
Wiz is a cloud security platform founded in 2020 by Assaf Rappaport, Ami Luttwak, Yinon Costica, and Roy Reznik, who previously sold Adallom to Microsoft. The software provides agentless cloud security posture management, workload protection, and runtime detection across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
Wiz reached $500 million in annual recurring revenue within four years and serves more than 45% of the Fortune 100, including Morgan Stanley, Salesforce, and BMW. It was the fastest SaaS company to reach $100M ARR.
In March 2025, Google announced its acquisition of Wiz for $32 billion, one of the largest cybersecurity deals ever. Prior to the acquisition, Wiz had raised $1.9 billion at a $12 billion valuation.

SentinelOne is primarily an endpoint and XDR vendor with cloud workload protection as an add-on, competing on agent-based detection rather than Wiz's agentless cloud posture management approach.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedOrca Security is Wiz's closest direct competitor, offering an agentless cloud security platform with similar architecture, targeting the same CNAPP buyer and competing head-to-head on cloud-native visibility.
Lacework (acquired by Fortinet) offers a cloud security platform with data-driven anomaly detection, competing directly with Wiz for CNAPP deals though with less market share after its acquisition.
