Israeli cybersecurity company Check Point Software Technologies Ltd has reported its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results and announced the acquisition of three Israeli start-ups: Cyata, Cyclops, and the employees of Rotate.

No financial details were disclosed, but market sources estimate that the three acquisitions will cost more than $150 million.

Cyclops was founded in 2022 by CEO Eran Zilberman, CTO Elay Gueta, and CPO Biran Franco. The company raised $13.25 million in a seed round, according to Check Point, led by Merlin Ventures and with participation from Ibex Investors, Tal Ventures, Insight Partners, and private investors. It has over 20 employees.

Cyclops has developed a platform for enterprise attack surface management and mitigation (CAASM) that provides unified, continuous visibility into all cyber assets in an organization—cloud, identities, endpoints, servers, applications, and SaaS environments.

At the core of the solution is an agentic AI layer that analyzes relationships among assets, vulnerabilities, and the business context, identifies control gaps, prioritizes exposures by business impact, and proactively guides the user to insights and risk-mitigation steps.

All three are graduates of the IDF 8200 intelligence unit.
