Shocking Cost of Mark Zuckerberg’s Security Revealed

The Meta billionaire’s security allocation is more than all of his peers, combined.

Mark Zuckerberg isn’t taking any chances. The tech billionaire’s security cost more than $27 million in 2024, up from $24 million the year before. That’s more than all of his peers combined: $3.5 million for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, $1.6 million for Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, $1.4 million for Apple CEO Tim Cook, and $6.8 million for Alphabet’s Sundar Pichai. Elon Musk only got a security allocation of $500,000 from Tesla. Altogether, if you add up how much Apple, Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Palo Alto Networks spent to safeguard their CEOs last year, it all equals around $7 million or 26 percent less than what Meta spent on their big boss. Zuckerberg has been the target of public controversy, with critics slamming his contributions to President Donald Trump’s campaign, his polarizing AI projects, and his ownership of a vast amount of land in Hawaii. Zuckerberg’s net worth stands at nearly $270 billion. Executives across the U.S. have spent more money on protection since the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December.
