Israeli cybersecurity unicorn Cyera announced on Tuesday that it had signed a letter of intent to acquire Oasis Security, a fellow Israeli startup specializing in non-human identity and AI agent access management, in a deal valued at $1 billion.

Roughly $700 million will be paid in cash, with the rest in Cyera shares. Neither company has officially disclosed the terms.

Cyera CEO Yotam Segev said the deal unifies identity and data security into a single platform to secure the “agentic enterprise,” pointing to a nearly 500% surge in non-human identities inside Fortune 500 companies over the past six months.

Cyera was founded in 2021 by Segev and CTO Tamar Bar-Ilan, both Talpiot program graduates and Unit 8200 veterans, and recently raised $600 million at a $12 billion valuation.

Oasis will operate as an independent unit within Cyera once the deal closes.
