Nearly a yr in the past, we shared that Wiz could be becoming a member of Google. At the time, we spoke a couple of perception that by bringing collectively Wiz’s innovation and Google’s scale, we might meaningfully change what safety appears to be like like within the cloud.
Today, as we formally start our journey as a Google firm, that perception feels actual in a a lot deeper manner. Not due to what has modified, however due to what has stayed true.
Our mission stays daring and unwavering: to assist each group shield all the pieces they construct and run. What has modified is the world round us. Now, we should do that on the pace of AI.
A Year of Redefining Velocity
Cloud as soon as remodeled how briskly groups might construct. AI is doing it once more, unlocking a brand new period of innovation the place functions transfer from concept to manufacturing in minutes. Generative AI is now not experimental; it’s changing into a core a part of how fashionable organizations construct, ship, and scale.
Customers are leaning into this second, utilizing AI to maneuver sooner, create extra, and reimagine what’s doable. But constructing at this tempo requires a brand new strategy to safety – one which retains up with change and helps innovation moderately than slows it down.
At Wiz, we imagine safety ought to speed up progress. By combining deep understanding of cloud environments with wealthy context throughout code, cloud, and runtime, we allow groups to construct AI-powered functions securely from the beginning and strengthen them repeatedly as they evolve.
Today’s safety leaders are targeted on enabling the enterprise, supporting fast innovation whereas staying forward of more and more refined threats. With Wiz, they don’t have to decide on between pace and safety.
In this setting, velocity is all the pieces. At Wiz, it’s our mantra; we’re dedicated to serving to prospects flip that pace into a long-lasting edge – constructing boldly, securely, and with confidence.
The Path That Brought Us Here
During the acquisition course of, our wizards by no means stopped constructing. In the previous yr, we hit many main milestones because of their grit and willpower.
Wiz Research continues to be on the forefront of safety, uncovering important vulnerabilities that shield not simply Wiz prospects, however the business at giant. This work highlights the systemic dangers inherent within the digital age, with discoveries like:
An uncovered database in Moltbook, a viral social community for AI brokers, that leaked hundreds of thousands of API keys and underscored the safety implications of vibe coded functions.
CodeBreach, a important provide chain vulnerability that might have compromised the AWS Console.
RediShell, a 13-year-old important RCE flaw in Redis (CVSS 10.0) that impacted over 75% of cloud environments.
NVIDIAScape, a container escape vulnerability that threatened shared AI infrastructure.
A collaboration with vibe coding chief Lovable to harden their platform and shield the following era of AI-generated functions (the place Wiz discovered that 1 in 5 organizations are uncovered to systemic dangers).
The discovery and remediation of a classy wave of provide chain assaults, together with Shai-Hulud and NX, the place our analysis protected a whole lot of organizations from extremely focused, evolving threats.
To push the boundaries of innovation even additional, we additionally hosted ZeroDay.cloud, a first-of-its-kind hacking competitors the place the world’s prime researchers uncovered a document variety of CVEs in foundational cloud and AI instruments.
These milestones symbolize our unwavering dedication to securing the open-source and multicloud infrastructure underpinning the trendy world.
Building an AI Security Platform for the Future
Product innovation has at all times been on the coronary heart of Wiz, and over the previous yr, our momentum has solely accelerated.
As prospects construct and ship sooner within the AI period, we expanded the Wiz AI Security Platform to safe AI functions themselves, offering visibility into AI utilization, stopping AI-native dangers, and defending AI workloads in runtime.
We launched Wiz Exposure Management to present groups a single, proactive view of threat — unifying vulnerability and assault floor administration from code to cloud to on-prem, to allow them to concentrate on what actually issues and proactively take away exploitable threat.
We pushed the boundaries of automation with AI Security Agents, purpose-built to assist groups examine, prioritize, and remediate threat at machine pace, powered by deep context throughout code, cloud, and runtime.
And to assist builders begin safe by default, we launched WizOS: hardened, near-zero-CVE container base photos that give groups a trusted basis from the very first commit.
These are just some highlights from a yr of relentless constructing, and we’re solely getting began.
The Power of AI and the Strength of Multi-Cloud
Now, as one staff with Google Cloud, now we have the chance to speed up our roadmap in ways in which merely weren’t doable earlier than. By integrating essentially the most innovative AI capabilities into the Wiz platform, we’ll proceed to present safety groups new superpowers. In the approaching days, we’ll share extra about how we’re already working with Gemini, and what the following part of this partnership will unlock.
But one factor just isn’t altering: Wiz stays a multi-cloud platform. Today, we work with a lot of the Fortune 100, and a lot of the Frontier AI labs, in addition to most of the world’s fastest-growing, cloud-native firms. Our prospects run on AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. Our purpose is to guard their total setting – each workload, each software, each main cloud.
Joining Google doesn’t slim our focus. It strengthens it. With Google’s infrastructure, Mandiant’s risk intelligence, and the broader Google Unified Security Platform and ecosystem, we will shield prospects higher – wherever they construct.
Trust is one thing we earn each day. And we intend to show it by our actions, our product, and our tempo of innovation.
The Next Chapter
To our prospects: thanks to your belief. You problem us to unravel the toughest issues in safety, and you’re the cause we construct.
To the Wiz staff: I could also be CEO in title, however you’re the ones who lead. Thank you to your dedication, your care, and your perception in what we’re making collectively.
Our mission stays as daring as ever: to guard all the pieces organizations construct and run.
And we’re nonetheless simply getting began.
