2023. Website security platform Imperva is acquired by French giant Thales



Thales, the French defense group, is acquiring the cybersecurity company Imperva for $3.6 billion. Imperva is known for its expertise in data and application security, offering a wide range of services, including web application firewalls (WAFs), API security, DDoS protection, account takeover (ATO) protection, and data activity monitoring (DAM), among others. Thales has been actively investing in strengthening its cybersecurity portfolio through various acquisitions in recent years. For instance, in 2017, it made a significant $5.5 billion deal to acquire Gemalto, a company specialized in digital identification and data protection, particularly in the banking sector. More recently, Thales completed the acquisition of Excellium and S21SEC in deals that concluded last year. Additionally, Thales is in the process of acquiring the Australian cybersecurity startup Tesserent for $176 million (AUD). With the addition of Imperva, Thales is making its entry into the application security market while further expanding its presence in the data security domain.




2023. DataDome, which uses AI to protect against bot-based attacks, raises $42M



As bots pose a significant threat to businesses by stealing content, inventory, and even committing fraud, it's not surprising that companies selling bot-fighting technology are receiving large investments. One such example is DataDome, which offers bot protection services for mobile apps, websites, and APIs and has raised $42 million in a Series C funding round. DataDome's platform uses machine learning to evaluate every request to a website, mobile app, or API, rather than relying on static rules to prevent bot-based threats. Other companies, such as Kasada, ThreatX, and PerimeterX, also use machine learning and proprietary platforms to combat online bots and prevent anomalous behavior in a fully automated manner.
