Analysts are bewildered by Ericsson’s $6.2B acquisition; sponsorship matters for women in cybersecurity; and Red Hat plans to deploy SASE across telecom infrastructure.

Red Hat doesn’t want to compete with established SD-WAN and cloud security vendors. Instead, the company sees an opportunity to orchestrate SASE deployments.

“With every Yin, there is a Yang, and while IaC increases agility, any misconfiguration can cause a security risk,” analyst Zeus Kerravala said.

Kyndryl and VMware address multi-cloud challenges; the largest hyperscalers now own 700 data centers combined; and Palo Alto Networks reported $1.25 billion in Q1 revenue.

CEO Nikesh Arora credited strong demand for the vendor's SASE and XDR product families for its strong revenue gains during the quarter.

The U.S. share of worldwide capacity continues to decline, but this is not a case of the bigger they come, the harder they fall.

The service provider will offer VMWare’s portfolio of networking, security, and virtualization tools to accelerate cloud and edge migration.

Nokia revealed a trio of SaaS offerings; Unit 42 reported an uptick in cloud attacks over the past three years; and Lacework raised $1.3B in funding.

Mounting regulatory hurdles to Nvidia's $40 billion Arm acquisition were contrasted by the chipmaker's record third-quarter revenue growth.

It’s the cybersecurity unicorn’s second record-setting investment in less than a year. In January, Lacework announced a $525 million funding round.

Unit 42 has seen a 188% increase in cloud incident response cases, Palo Alto Networks SVP Wendi Whitmore said.

Qualcomm articulated a strategy to push its chipset platform into IoT; Fortinet integrated its SD-WAN with Azure vWAN; and Arista expanded its X-series switch family.

Embracing zero trust means ending the game of software-threat whack-a-mole, Palo Alto Networks' founder and CTO Nir Zuk said.

“In the event when you’re hunting down a threat, it can be a really long, cold winter between discovery and remediation if you lack visibility,” Cisco SVP Al Huger

“What you need is a holistic approach with solutions that accommodate the enterprise needs and the hyperscaler needs,” Arista Networks VP Martin Hull said.

The integration extends Fortinet's SD-WAN and firewall security to branch-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud networking architectures using Azure's vWAN on-ramp.

“We’re having a seven-times expansion of the addressable market and we’ve never had so many end-market opportunities for Qualcomm as we see today,” CEO Cristiano Amon said.

Positive Technologies disclosed a vulnerability affecting Intel processor families; T-Mobile mid-band 5G covers 200M people; and Ericsson revealed an SMO platform.

The attackers accessed the Aruba Central cloud environment using an unauthorized access key and exposed two data repositories, according to an HPE security advisory.

“The data cloud at Snowflake is not an idea or a long-term goal,” Snowflake SVP Christian Kleinerman said. “It is a reality, it's happening today.”

Gartner recently coined CNAPP, and the cloud security sector has quickly rallied around this name and product category. Today Palo Alto Networks joined the CNAPP party.

The flaw allows an attacker to extract encryption keys from devices running Intel’s Apollo Lake- and Gemini Lake-based Pentium, Celeron, and Atom processors.

The chipmaker claims its Alveo FPGAs can go toe to toe with Nvidia's GPU-based accelerators while offering greater compute density, power efficiency, and integrated networking.

“In cloud-managed networking ... our 13% market share is larger than the No. 3 and No. 4 vendor share combined,” Extreme CEO Ed Meyercord said.
