Google said on Wednesday that it has completed its acquisition of Israeli cybersecurity firm Wiz for $32 billion in cash, a full year after the companies announced the deal. This marks Google’s biggest acquisition in its history.
Wiz, which provides a security platform that helps major cloud environments prevent and respond to cybersecurity threats, will join Google Cloud, but will maintain its brand “and commitment to securing customers across all cloud environments,” the search giant said in a statement.
Organizations large and small are increasingly working across different cloud services provided by the likes of AWS, Oracle, Microsoft and Google itself, so incorporating Wiz gives Google an easy way to win more enterprise clients by offering a multi-cloud security platform.
The deal also gives Google a hefty source of revenue: Wiz recorded annual recurring revenue of more than $1 billion in 2025, a source familiar with the company told TechCrunch.
Together, the two companies will work on delivering a “unified security platform” to help organizations deal with threats faster — an essential task as the rise of vibe coding has resulted in an increase in security vulnerabilities among code bases. And the widespread use of AI tools also means prompt injection attacks have become more commonplace.
Wiz has leaned into its own use of AI to improve threat detection and investigation at every layer of a cloud’s environment, from code and infrastructure to runtime.
“This acquisition is an investment by Google Cloud to improve cloud security and enable organizations to build fast and securely across any cloud or AI platform,” Google’s statement reads.
Google initially approached Wiz in 2024 with an offer to buy the startup for $23 billion, but Wiz walked away from that offer. Its CEO Assaf Rappaport said at the time that he felt the business could grow to be a lot bigger than that.
The companies revived talks early in 2025, and Google last March reached an agreement to buy the Israeli company.
The deal comes after it received approval from U.S. and European Union regulators in November 2025 and February 2026, respectively, following antitrust probes.
This story has been updated with more information about the deal and Wiz’s 2025 financials.
