Enterprises spend more on security but aren’t benefitting from the extra spend. Palo Alto Networks’ customers who buy security across 3 platforms spend more than 40x those that secure just one. Despite those dollars… “Adding incremental point products is not necessarily driving a better security outcome for them.” - Nikesh Arora, CEO of Palo Alto Networks The average enterprise uses upwards of 70 security products. Many of these products produce alerts identifying phishing emails or network access issues or odd device behavior. The security operations center (SOC) reviews these alerts. Estimates suggest the typical team receives between 5,000 & 11,000 alerts per day - every day. Worse still, every SOC team is short-staffed. No wonder these teams can’t keep up with the deluge. Fewer than 10% of alerts are ever reviewed. Many security breaches could have been detected earlier with broader coverage. Dropzone provides AI SOC analysts that never sleep. Leveraging the power of LLMs, Dropzone’s analysts collect alerts, fetch relevant information from other systems, and then triage alerts. These agents also inform copilots that empower security analysts to ask questions of their environment leveraging the insight of the AI analysts. RSA selected Dropzone a top 10 Finalist in the Innovation Sandbox. We’re thrilled to support Edward & the Dropzone team in fulfilling their mission. As Senior Principal Scientist, Edward architected the AI systems at ExtraHop, a network security company acquired for $900M. Our partner Andy wrote in greater depth about our vision for the company here : https://lnkd.in/dyUy6M_3.

Last week in #enterprise #software: April 24th - IBM announces the acquisition of HashiCorp for $6.4B April 25th - Rubrik goes public on the NYSE at $32/share with a market cap of $5.6B April 26th - Thoma Bravo announces the acquisition of Darktrace for $5.3B Have large M&As and IPOs finally returned? This week has so far been relatively slow but next week the #cybersecurity world descends on San Francisco for RSA Conference. Lots of backroom deal-making happens during the conference so we may see more activity. Who could be next? On the M&A front, Morgan Stanley Research (Hamza, Keith) shared a list of enterprise software companies that they believe fit the attributes most wanted by acquirers (less than $10B enterprise value, 70%+ gross margin, and 90%+ gross dollar retention). If you'll be at the conference, I'd love to meet you! And if you're a founder, don't forget to sign up for our CyberSeed founders-only event on May 9th: https://lu.ma/92btau0n (only 10 spots left!)

Valkey, the value-key database pitched as an open source alternative to Redis, has acquired new backers and announced its first release candidate. Backed by The Linux Foundation and cloud vendors Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Oracle, Valkey was started up after Redis confirmed it was shifting its main key-value store system to a dual-license approach, imposing far more restrictive terms than those of the previous Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) 3-clause license. Less than two weeks later, The Linux Foundation has announced the Valkey 7.2.5-rc1 release candidate, based on Redis OSS 7.2.4. It regains the protocol, API, return values, and data file formats with the last open source release of Redis, the developers claim. The project has also named a raft of companies now supporting the project. They include Chinese firms Alibaba Cloud and Huawei, along with European open source database-as-a-service provider Aiven, open source security firm Chainguard, cloud-platform-as-a-service company Heroku, database and open source advisory biz Percona, and telecoms provider Verizon. Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Oracle, Ericsson, and Snap Inc. had already signed up to the project.
