Cato Networks recently raised $359 million at a $4.8 billion valuation, with new investors like Vitruvian Partners and ION Crossover Partners.

Prompt Security, Lasso, Aim, Pillar, and Noma are all tipped as the next targets in Israel’s red-hot AI-cyber M&A race.
The article discusses the burgeoning AI-cybersecurity M&A activity in Israel, highlighting companies like Prompt Security, Lasso, Aim, Pillar, and Noma as potential acquisition targets. The AI revolution has significantly impacted the cybersecurity sector, with attackers using AI for sophisticated attacks and defenders leveraging AI for advanced security tools. Recent acquisitions, such as Palo Alto Networks acquiring Protect AI for $700 million, have sparked a frenzy in the market. U.S. companies like Zscaler and F5, along with Israeli firm Check Point, are actively seeking acquisitions. Despite founders desires to remain independent, venture funds are pushing for exits, with several Israeli AI-cyber exits expected soon. The focus is on acquiring talent and technology rather than mature products, as seen in recent deals.
