The security functionality embeds threat inspection and policy-based enforcement into every node running Aviatrix's cloud networking platform.

While Trend Micro isn’t as flashy or loquacious as some of its competitors, the cloud security giant decided to use AWS re:Invent as an opportunity to humblebrag.

Open RAN isn't as widely supported as it seems; neuromorphic computing could help speed up AI; and AWS adds XDR capabilities to Amazon Inspector.

The new XDR offering combines the FireEye Helix platform with Amazon Inspector, aiming to offer better visibility and protection for applications and data in the cloud.

Armis is the fastest growing cybersecurity software company; Ericsson stock is down nearly 6% since its Vonage acquisition; and Samsung plans to build a $17B semiconductor fab.

Compared to VMware, “we continue to see a higher win ratio and we are much more disciplined in terms of our execution,” Nutanix CEO Rajiv Ramaswami said.

Enterprise IT isn’t a natural fit for the wireless industry, but it’s widely regarded the most potentially uplifting market by industry stalwarts and upstarts.

Deloitte ranks the 500 firms based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth from 2017 to 2020. Armis, which ranked No. 25 on the list, grew 8,826% over that period.

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.

Some analysts describe Ericsson’s purchase of Vonage as a surprise. “On paper it looks a little bit like square peg, round hole,” analyst Zeus Kerravala said.

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

A general lack of enthusiasm and trigger mechanisms to pull more people into 5G’s orbit could portend a rough slog for mobile network operators.

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.

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.

“We have room to get better in security, and the teams are working hard on that,” Chuck Robbins said. “There’s a lot of innovative work going on.”

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

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

The initiative is one of many striving to open and disaggregate network infrastructure, interfaces, and equipment that power wireless networks.

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

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

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.
