It was on, then off, and now it’s back—this time with a much bigger price tag. Google’s $32 billion acquisition of cloud security startup Wiz has been finalized, and there’s plenty to unpack about the deal: the why, the how, and what it means for the industry.
And, of course, the biggest winners. Venture capital giant Sequoia takes home the top prize for total payout. However, Israeli-based Cyberstarts had the largest percentage gain in the deal.
