Today’s announcement is a big moment for us at Wiz. It’s another milestone on our never-ending journey to build an even stronger Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) by bringing on incredible companies that will make a real difference for our customers. 

Everything we do is rooted in customer need. Wiz has always been driven by a desire to help organizations actually improve their security posture—not just by reporting risks, but by prioritizing and resolving issues where it matters most. We began by transforming risk detection with graph-based context, bridging the gap between cloud and code, and enabling security and engineering teams to collaborate seamlessly. 

We’re entering an exciting new chapter: revolutionizing remediation and application security. And there’s no better partner for this journey than Dazz. With Dazz’s industry-leading remediation engine, we can empower security teams to correlate data from multiple sources and manage application risks in one unified platform. Their advanced mapping capabilities pinpoint root issues, enabling engineers to address vulnerabilities directly in the code while seamlessly integrating vital cloud context into security workflows. 

In today’s world, organizations must connect risks across the entire application lifecycle—from code to cloud and on-prem infrastructure. They need tools that prioritize issues with precision and make collaboration effortless. Dazz delivers on this need, simplifying remediation and empowering teams to act quickly and decisively. 

Dazz’s ability to correlate, contextualize, and streamline remediation has made it a leader in Application Security Posture Management (ASPM). I’m thrilled to see how their technology will accelerate our customers’ ability to resolve risks at the source. 

On a personal note, I first crossed paths with Dazz CEO & Co-founder Merav Bahat in the halls of Microsoft after the acquisition of Adallom, the first company my co-founders and I built. Though neither of us had yet envisioned the ideas that would become Wiz and Dazz, we shared a close partnership fueled by a mutual conviction that cybersecurity held vast potential for disruption. This “full circle” moment of welcoming Dazz to Wiz is incredibly meaningful, and I’m grateful to continue our long-standing partnership. 

To all our Wizards (especially the new ones!): I can’t wait to achieve great things together.  

To our customers and partners: as always, everything we do is for you.  

Here’s to the road ahead.
