CyberArk Accepts $25 Billion Acquisition Offer from Palo Alto Networks

California cybersecurity giant to gain AI-powered identity management tools from Israeli firm

Palo Alto Networks, the U.S.-based cybersecurity giant, and Israel’s CyberArk announced on July 30, 2025, that they have entered into a definitive agreement for Palo Alto to acquire CyberArk in a deal valued at $25 billion (€21.7 billion). The offer represents a 26% premium over CyberArk’s last traded share price on the Nasdaq.

Founded in 1999, CyberArk specializes in identity security solutions, leveraging artificial intelligence to automate anomaly detection and access governance. The acquisition will provide Palo Alto Networks with “a critical component to enhance its Zero Trust architecture,” the companies said in a joint statement.

This deal marks the largest acquisition in Palo Alto Networks’ history and the second-largest cybersecurity deal of 2025, trailing only Google’s $32 billion purchase of fellow Israeli firm Wiz.
