Microsoft Confirms Adallom Acquisition

September 9, 2015 | Microsoft has confirmed its acquisition of the Israeli cloud security company Adallom for an undisclosed amount. Adallom exposed security flaws in Microsoft’s Office365 software in 2013. It is estimated that Microsoft will pay between $250-320 million for the acquisition of Adallom, and that the acquisition may signal the establishment of a cyber security R&D center for Microsoft in Israel. Adallom was founded in 2012 by Adam Rappaport, Ami Luttwak and Roy Reznik.
