Israel just produced two of the largest cybersecurity exits in history within a single year. Google completed its $32 billion acquisition of Wiz on March 11, 2026. Palo Alto Networks closed its $25 billion acquisition of CyberArk on February 11, 2026. Combined: $57 billion in disclosed transaction value, both anchored to companies founded in Israel.

Israel runs one of the world's deepest cybersecurity talent pipelines: Unit 8200, 9900, Mossad cyber, Shin Bet technology, and the Technion's information security programs feed a private sector that produced Check Point, NSO, Wiz, CyberArk, Aqua, Silverfort, Pentera, Sentra, Dream, Oasis Security, and dozens more.
