On March 11, 2026, Google said it completed its acquisition of Wiz, a cloud and AI security platform, bringing the company into Google Cloud while keeping the Wiz brand and its cross‑cloud posture. Google said Wiz will continue to secure customers across major cloud environments such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle—an important signal for enterprises running multicloud stacks.
Google framed the deal as a move to build a unified security platform for multicloud and AI‑era workloads, and described Wiz as a cloud and AI security platform headquartered in New York. The press materials emphasize that the Wiz brand and its commitment to protecting customers across cloud providers will remain intact after closing.
The announcement did not disclose the purchase price, but multiple outlets reported the deal at about $32 billion in cash, making the figure a reported value rather than an official one. TechCrunch, Yahoo Finance, and Investing.com all cited the $32B figure while noting the acquisition has now formally closed.
The strategic tension now is how Google integrates Wiz into Google Cloud without diluting its cross‑cloud neutrality—particularly for customers that want a single security control plane spanning multiple providers. Google’s statement reiterates that Wiz will keep supporting customers across clouds, but it did not spell out a detailed integration timeline or product roadmap.
