Israeli Cybersecurity Firm Cyera Acquires Startup Oasis Security for $1 Billion

Israeli cybersecurity company Cyera announced on July 28, 2026, the signing of a letter of intent to acquire the Israeli startup Oasis Security in a deal valued at approximately $1 billion. The acquisition aims to merge the security platforms of both companies to offer a comprehensive solution addressing the emerging cybersecurity challenges posed by artificial intelligence (AI) agents. These AI agents, which operate autonomously within large organizations' systems, not only consume but also locate, analyze, and act on sensitive data without human intervention.

The integration will enable organizations to better manage the relationship between their sensitive information and the AI bots or software seeking access. This need for protection has intensified as computerized systems increasingly replace human roles in enterprises. According to the companies, Fortune 500 firms have seen a 480% surge in "non-human identities", access keys and service accounts used by software and bots, in just the past six months.

Under the deal, Oasis will operate as an independent unit within Cyera and continue to lead in securing these non-human identities. Cyera's co-founder and CEO, Yotam Segev, emphasized that "the AI era changes how organizations protect their data," highlighting the importance of understanding both the data to protect and the entities requesting access. Oasis Security's co-founder and CEO, Danny Brickman, noted their early recognition of non-human identities as a critical security challenge in the AI age and expressed confidence that the partnership will accelerate their shared vision for cybersecurity.

This acquisition follows Cyera's recent $600 million funding round, which valued the company at $12 billion. Industry observers view the deal as a significant milestone for the Israeli tech sector, representing a strategic consolidation of two leading local firms to build a unified AI security platform.
