Anomali Secures FedRAMP "In Process" Status, Accelerating AI-Powered Cyber Defense for Federal Agencies
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., August 19, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Anomali, the leading AI-Powered Security and IT Operations Platform, has officially achieved Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Moderate "In Process" status on its U.S. Public Cloud offering. The FedRAMP Moderate designation is a federal cloud security standard for systems that handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). By achieving "In Process" status, Anomali demonstrates its commitment to protecting federal operations against significant threats that could negatively impact assets, or personnel. "Reaching this FedRAMP milestone represents a major step toward delivering high-trust, AI-powered cyber defense to U.S. federal agencies," said George Moser, Chief Growth Officer at Anomali. "Federal environments are among the most targeted and complex in the world, and our platform was engineered to meet those challenges with the required performance and scale. The 'In Process' status empowers federal agencies to transition from a reactive posture to proactive defense, which is essential for securing our nation's critical systems and infrastructure." With the "In Process" designation secured, Anomali is actively collaborating with its sponsoring agency, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and third-party assessors to finalize the steps for full FedRAMP Moderate authorization. Once fully authorized, Anomali will be cleared to provide its AI-powered security and IT operations platform (including its proprietary data lake and threat intelligence) to a wider range of federal environments. This will enable agencies to proactively defend their most sensitive, mission-critical systems. "We brought Anomali into CMS more than five years ago and its threat intelligence and data lake use cases have become a critical centerpiece for the security team," said Robert Wood, former CISO at CMS and now CEO at Sidekick Security. "One of our primary goals in security was to make data more freely accessible across teams and across the agency with our security data lake. Anomali was a key enabler of that strategy."

Santos flags delay in $18.7bn takeover bid by ADNOC-led consortium
Australia's second-largest independent gas producer, Santos, has announced a delay in the $18.7bn takeover bid by an Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC)-led consortium, extending the exclusive due diligence period by at least one month past the initial deadline, as reported by Reuters. The consortium, which includes Abu Dhabi Development Holding Company (ADQ) and Carlyle, is said to have informed Santos that additional time is required to secure all necessary approvals for formalising the bid. The consortium's proposed offer of A$8.89 per share has been under scrutiny, with Santos shares trading below the proposed value since the announcement on 16 June. Despite the delay, ADNOC's international investment arm, XRG, stated that the consortium will continue due diligence and negotiations. The enterprise value of Santos, including net debt, would reach A$36.4bn, potentially marking the largest all-cash corporate buyout in Australian history, as per FactSet data. Rystad Energy Gas and LNG Research vice-president Kaushal Ramesh was quoted by the news agency as saying: "This was never going to be an easy transaction to pull off with the confluence of domestic energy security and national interest considerations as well as the multitude of hard to please stakeholders involved.' Regulatory approvals from Australia, Papua New Guinea and the US are essential for the deal to proceed, given Santos' asset distribution across these jurisdictions. Jamie Hannah, deputy investment director at Santos shareholder Van Eck, said: "I don't think (the delay) is going to change the overall risk to the takeover, and that is still the Foreign Investment Review Board. I think that is probably the biggest risk to the whole takeover.' Australia's gas market is under political scrutiny, with warnings of a potential gas shortfall in the eastern states by 2028. Santos' long-delayed Narrabri gas project in New South Wales is seen as a solution to this impending issue. In the previous year, Woodside and Santos were engaged in $52bn merger talks, which ultimately failed. Woodside chief executive Meg O'Neill stated Woodside's lack of interest in a rival bid. If the current bid is successful, the consortium would receive control of two Australian liquefied natural gas (LNG) operations and assets in Papua New Guinea, including the prized PNG LNG and Papua LNG projects. The two Australian LNG operations are Gladstone LNG and Darwin LNG. Santos is also progressing with its Alaskan oil project, Pikka, which is set to commence production in mid-2026. In the meantime, Santos has postponed its interim earnings report to 25 August from the initially planned 20 August.

Ashton Kutcher, MCR Hotels, and Soho House Just Struck a $2.7 Billion Deal, and Investors Will Want to Pay Attention
Key Points Soho House has signed a $2.7 billion take-private agreement with a consortium investors, including Ashton Kutcher. Kutcher will join Soho House's board as part of the deal. Investors who aren't already shareholders have limited options. 10 stocks we like better than Soho House & Co Inc. › Actor Ashton Kutcher starred in films like No Strings Attached (2011), Dude, Where's My Car? (2000), and What Happens in Vegas (2008), but now he's set to be the star of a corporate boardroom. Kutcher is leading a consortium of investors who are part of a $2.7 billion deal to take high-end membership club Soho House (NYSE: SHCO) private. As part of the deal, Kutcher will take a seat on Soho House's board. Here's what investors need to know. Some strings attached Soho House shareholders will receive $9 in cash per share when the deal closes. That represents an 83% premium over the pre-offer share price of $4.91 a share. The stock hasn't traded at that level since June 2022, although it's lower than the company's initial public offering (IPO) price of $14 per share from July 2021. It also represents a significant upside to the stock's Friday close of $7.64 a share. So, besides Ashton Kutcher, who are the buyers? Kutcher's consortium is partnering with MCR, the third-largest owner-operator of hotels in the U.S. While the bulk of MCR's portfolio consists of branded mid-priced hotels like Homewood Suites and Residence Inn, in recent years it has begun purchasing higher-end properties. In 2015, it bought the iconic Eero Saarinen-designed TWA hotel at JFK Airport and in 2023 it purchased the historic Gramercy Park Hotel in New York City. Soho House, a membership club offering exclusive access to a global portfolio of high-end vacation properties, spas, and coworking spaces, will further expand its high-end portfolio. As part of the deal, MCR's chairman and CEO, Tyler Morse, will take a seat on Soho House's board, along with Kutcher. The company is also getting a new CFO, Neil Thomson, who has spent 30 years in the hospitality industry. Dude, where's my update? The announcement took Wall Street by surprise, since it had been more than six months since the company had provided any new information about its potential privatization. On Dec. 19 of last year, Soho House announced it had received an offer from an unidentified "third-party consortium" to take the company private. That announcement caused the share price to immediately jump 47%, from $4.91 to $7.22. In its 2024 earnings release, Soho House included a "transaction update," that read, in part, "The Company set up a Special Committee to assess the offer and the parties continue to assess the offer and a potential transaction, however no assurances can be given that the Special Committee's assessment will result in any change in strategy, or if a transaction will be undertaken." Investors hoping for additional details were disappointed: Soho House's Q1 earnings release on May 9 and its Q2 earnings release on Aug. 8 just gave that same "transaction update," reprinted verbatim. Then, on Aug. 18, just 10 days after its Q2 earnings report, Soho House surprised everyone by announcing that it had signed a definitive agreement with the investor group that includes Kutcher and MCR. What happens in arbitrage So, is there any way for investors to cash in on this deal? If you're not already a Soho House shareholder, the upside is pretty limited. Shares are currently trading at about $8.80, just 2% below the offer price, indicating the market believes there's a high likelihood of the transaction succeeding (which is unsurprising, since the company name-checked several major shareholders as being on board). A 2% upside isn't much, especially considering you'd have to wait until the deal closes to cash in. If you are a Soho House shareholder, it may make sense for you -- depending on your investment goals and financial situation -- to sell your shares now. The alternative is to wait until the deal closes in exchange for a few measly percentage points of arbitrage, but you may earn more by putting that money into more promising investments now. Investors who missed the boat on Soho House may want to consider other beaten-down online property platforms like Airbnb or Marriott Vacations Worldwide, both of which are down more than 40% from their five-year highs.
