Background

CrowdStrike is a US cybersecurity company whose documented Israel record is commercial: six acquisitions of Israeli or Israeli-founded startups since 2020 (Preempt Security ~$96M in 2020, Reposify ~$18.9M in 2022, Bionic ~$350M in September 2023, Flow Security ~$200M in March 2024, Adaptive Shield ~$300M in November 2024, and Seraphic ~$400M in January 2026 — several struck during the Gaza war) and an Israeli R&D center in Ramat Gan of several hundred employees assembled from those deals. No corporate donations to Israeli organizations, official statements on the October 2023 war, or political contributions were found in this research; the record is acquisitions and operations.

Documented records

TypeDateAmountRecipientSources
Acquisition2020-09-23$96,000,000Preempt Security (US-Israeli zero-trust startup, R&D in Ramat Gan)
First Israeli-linked acquisition: agreed to buy Preempt Security, a US-Israeli zero-trust/conditional-access company with Israeli founders and an R&D center in Ramat Gan, for approximately $96 million (~$86 million cash plus ~$10 million in stock and options), per CrowdStrike's announcement. Preempt's development center became the seed of CrowdStrike's Israeli R&D presence.
Acquisition2022-09-20$18,900,000Reposify Ltd. (Israeli attack-surface-management startup)
Acquired Israeli external attack surface management (EASM) startup Reposify, announced at its Fal.Con 2022 conference, for $18.9 million per Israeli press reports; Reposify's technology became CrowdStrike's Falcon Surface product.
Acquisition2023-09-19$350,000,000Bionic (Bionic.ai — Israeli-founded application-security startup, Tel Aviv/Palo Alto)
Acquired Israeli-founded application security posture management startup Bionic (founded 2019 by Idan Ninyo and Eyal Mamo, ~100 employees in Tel Aviv and Palo Alto). Terms were not officially disclosed. Calcalist described the approximately $350 million price as its own estimate; TechCrunch reported the same figure independently, saying multiple sources close to the deal confirmed $350 million.
Acquisition2024-03-05$200,000,000Flow Security (Israeli data-security startup)
Announced the acquisition of Israeli data security posture management (DSPM) startup Flow Security — its fourth Israeli deal — for approximately $200 million. Terms were not officially disclosed; Calcalist put the price at $200-220 million, predominantly in cash, and reported that all 30 Flow employees would join CrowdStrike's growing centre in Israel.
Acquisition2024-11-06$300,000,000Adaptive Shield (Israeli SaaS-security startup, Tel Aviv)
Announced the acquisition of Israeli SaaS security posture management company Adaptive Shield for approximately $300 million per press reports — CrowdStrike's fifth Israeli acquisition and second of 2024, struck during the second year of the Gaza war. Geektime, reporting in Hebrew the same day, said the deal was paid entirely in cash and that Adaptive Shield's staff would become CrowdStrike employees; the startup had raised $44 million before the sale.
Acquisition2026-01-13$420,000,000Seraphic Security (Israeli enterprise-browser-security startup)
Acquired Israeli browser-security startup Seraphic (founded 2020 by Ilan Yeshua and Avihay Cohen, 50+ employees) — CrowdStrike's sixth Israeli acquisition, bringing its reported outlay on Israeli startups to well over $1.3 billion since 2020. Calcalist first reported the price at approximately $400 million; SecurityWeek, citing CrowdStrike itself, put the purchase price at $420 million, to be paid predominantly in cash with a stock component. CrowdStrike's SEC filings on the closed deal (completed 2026-02-03) show total GAAP consideration transferred of about $341 million in cash and replacement equity for the 90.6% stake it did not already own, plus a $38.1 million remeasurement of the 9.4% stake it held beforehand — a lower figure than either press estimate, reflecting standard purchase-accounting adjustments (net of cash acquired, working-capital adjustments, and equity awards tied to future service excluded from consideration). Geektime's Hebrew report adds that CrowdStrike had itself been an investor in Seraphic's last funding round about a year before buying it — consistent with the 9.4% stake the filing shows it already held — and that Seraphic had raised about $37 million in all.
Operations in Israel2024-11—CrowdStrike Israel R&D Ltd. (Ramat Gan / Tel Aviv)
Operates an Israeli R&D center through its registered subsidiary CrowdStrike Israel R&D Ltd. in Ramat Gan, built up from its Israeli acquisitions (Preempt, Reposify, Bionic, Flow Security, Adaptive Shield). According to Startup Nation Central's company profile, CrowdStrike employed roughly 400 people in Israel in late 2024 with plans to grow to 600 by the end of 2025.
