ERM has advised the Founders of Fireglass, a software company that has developed a system for isolating surfing within organisations on its acquisition by the US based and Nasdaq traded cyber security company Symantec for around $250 million.
The acquisition is significant as Symantec, one of the most prominent players in the field of information security, has almost no presence in Israel and it will lead to establishment of a development centre for the multinational as well enabling the company to broaden its security platform.
Natalie Noy, head of our high-tech and start-ups practice, led the team on the transaction which included Maya Schneider who leads our employment team.
