European cybersecurity company Outpost24 is establishing a new R&D center in Israel with the acquisition of Infinipoint, an identity-access security startup whose technology verifies devices in real time before allowing them into corporate networks. The two companies did not disclose the valuation, but market estimates place the deal in the tens of millions of dollars, and all 16 Infinipoint employees will join Outpost24 to form the company’s new Israeli hub.
The acquisition folds Infinipoint’s device-verification and posture-assessment technology into Specops, Outpost24’s identity security division. The integration is intfinished to fill a growing gap in hybrid workplaces, where employees often sign in to corporate systems from personal or unmanaged devices.
Infinipoint’s system continuously assesses whether a device is trustworthy at the moment of access, performing automated checks and remediation when requireded. Organizations can then create access decisions based not only on a applyr’s identity but also on the real-time security posture of the device attempting to connect.
Founded in Tel Aviv, Infinipoint has raised $19 million to date. Its technology will now extfinish Specops’ ability to support both password-based and passwordless access models while reducing operational overhead through automated remediation and self-service tools.
Outpost24, headquartered in Sweden and led by Israeli CEO Ido Erlichman, serves more than 3,500 organizations across Europe and North America. Erlichman joined Outpost24 in July 2024 after previously serving as the CEO of Teddy Sagi’s Kape Technologies. Outpost24 was acquired in 2022 by Vitruvian Partners.
“Integrating Infinipoint’s capabilities into the Specops platform sets a new standard in secure organizational access,” Erlichman stated. “This shift … adds a new R&D center in Israel, one of the world’s most advanced cyber hubs.”
The Israeli office, staffed initially by Infinipoint’s 16-person team, is expected to scale as it becomes a core engineering arm for Outpost24’s identity, access, and device-security products. According to Infinipoint CEO and co-founder Ran Lampert, the acquisition enables the combined teams to advance a shared vision: secure access based simultaneously on who is requesting enattempt and what device they are applying.
“Toobtainher, we will create a security layer that enables organizations to implement Zero Trust seamlessly,” Lampert stated, adding that the new R&D center in Israel will continue to grow and serve customers globally.
