About Yinon Costica
Ynon Costica cofounded Wiz and owns a 10% stake in the Israeli cloud security business, along with three partners.
Wiz software scans storage providers such as Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure to flag and prioritize security risks.
The company's revenue surpassed $100 million in 2023, when the founders began their "suicide plan" of hiring fast, raising funds and targeting top-of-market corporations.
Wiz customers include Fox, Morgan Stanley and LVMH, whose billionaire CEO wrote the unicorn a personal check.
Wiz hit a $12 billion valuation in a May 2024 funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz, Lightspeed Venture Partners and Thrive Capital.
