Wiz, Inc. is the undisputed global market leader, category-defining pioneer, and foundational multi-cloud cybersecurity platform of the modern cloud computing era. Founded in 2020 by four elite Israeli Unit 8200 intelligence commanders and former Microsoft cloud security executives—Assaf Rappaport, Yinon Costica, Ami Luttwak, and Roy Reznik—Wiz revolutionized enterprise security by developing a 100% agentless Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). Connecting to AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI in 15 minutes, Wiz's Security Graph maps multi-cloud topologies and correlates vulnerabilities, identities, and network routes to surface critical toxic risk combinations. Today, Wiz generates over $500 million in annual recurring revenue ($500M+ ARR) as the fastest software company to reach this milestone in history, valued at $12.0 billion after rejecting an unprecedented $23 billion buyout offer from Google in July 2024, protecting over 40% of the Fortune 100 under CEO Assaf Rappaport.
Wiz operates an exceptionally high-velocity, high-compounding enterprise software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscription business model characterized by software gross margins exceeding 80% and industry-shattering Net Revenue Retention (NRR) exceeding 140%. Its commercial revenue engine spans four core pillars: First, workload-based enterprise subscriptions priced on the number of virtual machines, serverless functions, and Kubernetes containers protected across multi-cloud environments (annual contracts typically range from $50,000 to over $1,000,000+ per enterprise). Second, Wiz Code developer scanning and infrastructure-as-code linting add-ons. Third, Wiz AI-SPM platform modules for securing enterprise Large Language Model deployments. Fourth, multi-million-dollar enterprise transactions transacted through AWS Marketplace, Azure Marketplace, and GCP Marketplace, drawing down committed enterprise cloud spend.
