Check Point Software Technologies has signed an agreement to acquire Veriti, a cybersecurity startup focused on preemptive exposure management. The deal, which is expected to close this quarter, marks a strategic move by Check Point to enhance its Infinity Platform by adding capabilities that help organizations detect and mitigate risks across a fragmented security environment. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed, but reports suggest the purchase price exceeds $100 million.Founded in 2021, Veriti helps security teams address operational blind spots by enabling multi-vendor remediation. Its platform integrates with over 70 different security tools, simplifying how organizations identify and fix exposures across various parts of their environment. This approach fits with Check Point’s broader strategy to push proactive defense mechanisms across its customer base, particularly through Infinity’s unified security management features.A significant aspect of this deal is Veriti’s integration with Wiz, a fast-growing cloud and AI security company. Veriti already ingests telemetry data from Wiz to automate patching workflows and close cloud exposure gaps. This acquisition is expected to strengthen Check Point’s existing partnership with Wiz by extending visibility and automation across hybrid and multi-cloud deployments.Once the acquisition is finalized, Check Point plans to incorporate Veriti into its Threat Exposure and Risk Management offering. The goal is to make it easier for enterprises to manage risks tied to configuration drift, shadow assets, and siloed threat detection tools—an increasingly pressing need as organizations scale across complex cloud environments.
