M&A Activity Remains Quiet Amid Uncertainty About New Administration

The mergers and acquisitions (MA) market has reportedly remained quiet so far this year as potential dealmakers try to get a sense of the Trump Administration’s stance on antitrust regulation. Year to date, through April 21, the number of deals is down 19%, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported Tuesday (April 22), citing data from LSEG. In February, there was no announcement of a deal valued over $10 billion globally — and that was the first time in 25 months that was the case — the report said

Analysis: Google-Wiz Deal Sparks Questions About Cloud Security Strategy At Aws And Microsoft

Google Cloud’s ad on the Las Vegas Sphere, overlooking Amazon’s re:Invent conference in November 2023. (GeekWire File Photo / Todd Bishop)Editor’s note: This analysis is written by Christopher Budd, a tech industry veteran who previously worked at the Microsoft Security Response Center.Earlier this month, Google announced plans to acquire Israel-based Wiz for the nearly jaw-dropping price of $32 billion (yes, with a “b”). Not only is this the biggest cybersecurity deal (yet) in terms of money — it’s also another instance of Google swooping in with a very big, open checkbook to snap up a cybersecurity industry leader to fold into the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This makes it clearer that Google sees security as a competitive differentiator in the cloud and is another step toward Microsoft’s model of integrating cloud and security in-house — and away from Amazon Web Services’ more hands-off strategy of relying primarily on a security partner ecosystem. Google’s move on Wiz is very similar to its acquisition of Mandiant in 2022 when it paid $5.4 billion for arguably the single best known incident response (IR) company in the world. Since then we’ve seen that Google bought Mandiant not because Google wanted to become a player in the IR space but because Google wanted to have some of the best IR capabilities in the world protecting GCP and its customers. Wiz is a leading company in the Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) space. CNAPPs provide a critical security layer to today’s cloud computing. If we look at the Mandiant acquisition as a blueprint, we can surmise that Google plans to take another industry-leading company and focus it on securing GCP.Meanwhile in Redmond, IR and CNAPP are capabilities that Microsoft’s cloud offering has had for years through internal development
