Build.security is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel. The company added that the build.security team will strengthen Elastic’s presence in Israel and that Amit Kanfer, co-founder and CEO of build.security, will be the site manager for the region.

Elastic did not disclose the financial terms of the deal. The company said it expects the deal to be completed in Elastic’s fiscal second quarter.
