Primary Insight

What Stands Out

  • Technology-layer expansion is a recurring theme, including smart contract security (OpenZeppelin via S&P Global) and AI/agentic workflow integration (e.g., Palo Alto Networks and Console).
  • Buyers frequently add “continuous” security capabilities: 24/7 threat detection, real-time DSPM, or always-on risk signal collection.
  • Data-centric security appears across multiple subsectors—DSPM for sensitive data flows (via SecureSky and Soveren) and privacy/data removal (via Surfshark and Optery).
  • Offensive and verification-oriented platforms are also featured, including a combined offensive cybersecurity platform from NetSPI and Synack.
  • Geographic signals in the recent deals point to a broad footprint, with transactions tied to the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, and the United States.
