Israel\u2019s cybersecurity sector wrapped up 2025 on an historic high, recording unprecedented fundraising levels and a dramatic spike in exit values, according to new figures released by Cybertech Global and IVC ahead of the Cybertech Global Tel Aviv 2026 conference, which opens Monday at Expo Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n

According to The Jerusalem Post, the report shows total exit value reached approximately $72.6 billion \u2013 including transactions signed but not yet finalized \u2013 marking an increase of more than 1,500% from 2024.

Series A activity rose by nearly one third, and the capital invested in those rounds more than doubled. Growth was even stronger at the Series B level, which saw sharp increases in both the number of deals and total investment.<\/p>\n

Later-stage rounds came to dominate the market, accounting for more than $5.4 billion in funding.<\/p>\n

While Series C rounds dropped steeply \u2013 falling to three deals from seven the year before \u2013 activity in later-stage rounds remained broadly stable, with 13 deals in 2025 versus 16 in 2024.<\/p>\n

The report showed that most of the jump in exit value can be traced to three outsized transactions by Wiz, CyberArk, and Armis, signed in 2025 and still pending completion. Stripped of those deals, exits would have totaled about $2 billion \u2013 just under last year\u2019s figure. However, the underlying…<\/p>\n
