About

Wiz is an Israeli-American cloud security company that provides a cloud security platform designed to help businesses secure their infrastructure at scale. The company's platform offers cloud visibility services for enterprise security by offering an overview of security risks across clouds, containers, and workloads without the need for agents or sidecars. It enables businesses to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, network exposure, manage identities and privileges, and discover exposed secrets. Wiz's platform analyzes computing infrastructure hosted in Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and Kubernetes for combinations of risk factors that could allow malicious actors to gain control of cloud resources and/or exfiltrate valuable data. The company operates a recurring revenue model, primarily through enterprise-grade software subscriptions.
