Data Quality
Data: MediumWandera was acquired by Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF) for $400 million in July 2021.
Last updated: March 10, 2026
Had Wandera remained an independent entity and continued its strong growth in the Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) markets, a larger strategic acquirer or an IPO could have valued it at $600M+ (50% upside), driven by expanding market share and a robust threat intelligence engine.
Wandera was acquired by Jamf for $400 million in July 2021, aligning with its strategic value in mobile security and zero-trust access. This outcome provided liquidity at the stated valuation, meaning a job seeker joining at that valuation would have seen a 0% upside from the acquisition price.
In a less favorable market or if the Jamf acquisition had fallen through, Wandera could have faced increased competitive pressure from incumbents like Zscaler and Palo Alto Networks, leading to a lower acquisition valuation of $280M (-30% downside) or a challenging path to independent liquidity.
