Melinda Marks , practice director, cybersecurity, Enterprise Strategy Group, says, 'Security teams need to mitigate risk to reduce the chance of cybersecurity incidents, and if and when an incident occurs, they need to respond as quickly as possible. Our research shows that security teams struggle with remediation efficiency because application security, cloud security, and security operations tools and processes have been historically siloed. With the introduction of Cortex Cloud, Palo Alto Networks delivers a unified code-to-cloud-to-SOC platform giving security teams the context to prioritize and drive remediation actions with the highest impact on reducing risk, while speeding up detection and response for security operations.'

When Mr. Market goes psycho, low risk option premium must be pocketed!
Matein Khalid Two fallen angel megacaps in a rich market now that July CPI proved a non-event, I see a beautiful opportunity to scale up my long Palo Alto Networks (PANW) and Eli Lilly (ELY) to former darlings of Mr. Market who have been sandbagged by adverse events in the last two weeks. My rationale? Palo Alto Networks (PANW) was slammed down to 165 after its $25 billion acquisition deal was dissed by Mr. Market. This is an insane overreaction. I just sold high delta PANW options up the wazoo since my math tells me that a $30 hit is only rational if an asteroid hits Santa Clara in the next month and prevents my one month puts from expiring worthless. Thank you Mr. Market for another no-brainer ahlan wa sahalan trade. I love you, you love me, we are a happy family as Barney loved to croon to my baby twins. ADVERTISEMENT True, Nikesh Arora is financing the CyberArk deal with only 2.5% cash and thus a Himalayan stock dilution. EPS now takes a 13% hit on a 100 million new shares to finance the deal and hence the meltdown to 165. As usual, Mr. Market ignores the EPS growth steroid shot that CyberArk provides the moment the deal closes next year since woke central demons have been exorcised by Trump at the SEC/Justice. Mr. Arora did not CyberArk on a whim. The cost and revenue synergies have been totally ignored by the stock market, not to mention product cross selling growth in the post merger platform. The oracles of Delphi in the Embarcadero Center in San Fran are sure that PANW operating margins will rise from 28%-32%, thanks to this deal. My cyber security guru Arjun and I both believe that the House of Arora is now all set to roar above 200 as these factors seep into the playing fields of Old Greenwich and Mayfair. The twin hedge fund capitals of the universe. I concede this puppy is not cheap at 45 times forward earnings but Cybersecurity is one of the fastest growth niches of software and a natural beneficiary of the AI revolution. Growth is not a problem with the val metrics as Nikesh has traded at 75X in the past and is now trading at the low end of his valuation range since he became CEO even though EPS growth now gets a Noah's Ark. Of course, the proof of the pudding is on August 18th when the earnings thunderbolt descends from cybersecurity Mount Olympus in Santa Clara. My call, Zeus will not disappoint us and the val multiple will rerate back to my 200 target, which is well below fair value for one of global technologies true class acts. Eli Lilly was also slammed by 15% because the oral Ozempic pill generated only 12% body weight loss and not the 15% Wall Street wanted. Get real guys. FDA approval is now certain and we just got a 15% discount on the only Big Pharma other than AbbVie worth owning in the age of RFK Junior. I do not know enough about the science and regulatory politics of anti-obesity drugs but there will be a robust global market for the LLY pill and thus I have no problem buying this puppy (actually, a mutated giant St. Bernard) at 625 as I know it can give me at least $30 in low risk option premium.

Tenable One Surpasses 300 Integrations, Delivering the Security Industry's Most Open Exposure Management Platform
Tenable®, the exposure management company, today announced a major new milestone as the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform now features over 300 validated integrations, making it the most open and interconnected exposure management platform on the market. This solidifies Tenable's position as the central hub for security data, analytics, and unified risk reduction, limiting the industry silos caused by fragmented visibility that have long plagued security teams. In an era where the average enterprise uses 83 different cybersecurity tools1, organizations face a chaotic and siloed view of their attack surface. This fragmentation creates dangerous blind spots that attackers exploit, while security teams waste critical time manually reconciling disparate data instead of stopping threats. Tenable One uniquely solves this challenge by serving as the essential connective tissue for the security stack. While exposure management is still a newer area of focus for most organizations, it has become clear that a robust but open platform with bi-directional partnership among vendors is essential to a preventative approach to cyber risk reduction. 'A closed-off platform isn't just an inconvenience – it's a security risk, and Tenable is leading the charge to tear down these walls,' said Eric Doerr, chief product officer at Tenable. 'Reaching over 300 integrations is a fundamental shift in cyber control. We're giving our customers the power to see everything, connect everything, and manage their exposure from a single, unified platform without having to replace the tools they already trust. This is the future of cybersecurity, and Tenable is delivering it today.' The Tenable One platform unifies data from across the technology ecosystem—including endpoint detection and response (EDR), cloud native application protection platforms (CNAPP), asset inventory, privileged access management (PAM) tools and more—to provide a single, contextualized view of risk. By ingesting and correlating third-party data, Tenable One enriches it with threat intelligence and business context that identifies blind spots, allowing teams to visualize attack paths and perform contextual analysis to cut through the noise and focus on the exposures that matter most. By seamlessly integrating with IT service management systems, communication platforms, security information and event management (SIEM) tools, and patch management tools, Tenable One doesn't just provide insight—it drives action. The platform automates remediation workflows and streamlines cross-team collaboration, dramatically reducing the time it takes to investigate and close exposures. Two-thirds of Tenable One customers — including many of the most security-mature organizations — already leverage Tenable integrations. This open ecosystem delivers measurable impact, with some Tenable customers reporting up to 10x greater visibility and 75% less time spent aggregating data, freeing teams to focus on preemptive, risk-based operations. To further accelerate integration development and expand ecosystem reach, Tenable is introducing a universal integrations connector for the Tenable One platform this fall. This flexible, self-service framework enables customers and partners to easily build and maintain their own integrations – securely connecting custom applications and security tools to Tenable One without waiting on vendor roadmaps. It reinforces Tenable's commitment to openness while empowering organizations to tailor the platform to their unique environments. What Partners Are Saying 'Effective security requires collaboration, and our partnership with Tenable exemplifies this approach in action. By integrating Tenable One's rich exposure data directly into Splunk Cloud Platform, Splunk Enterprise Security, and SOAR, we are providing our joint customers with unparalleled context to detect and respond to threats faster than ever before. The breadth of Tenable's ecosystem is a massive force multiplier for security operations teams.' – Gretchen O'Hara, Vice President, Worldwide Channels & Alliances, Splunk 'The traditional boundaries between security and operational teams have blurred, and meaningful risk reduction demands coordinated action across the business. The deep integration between Tenable One and the ServiceNow AI Platform helps close the gap between vulnerability identification and enterprise-scale remediation. Together, we're enabling customers to accelerate response and embed risk reduction into the fabric of how work gets done, ensuring critical exposures are addressed before they can be exploited.' – Lou Fiorello, GVP and GM of Security and Risk Products, ServiceNow 'Compromising privileged access remains the primary goal of cyberattackers, and understanding exposure is critical. The integration between the CyberArk Identity Security Platform and Tenable One gives our joint customers a powerful advantage. With a unified approach that combines deep vulnerability insights with intelligent privilege controls, organizations can pinpoint risks to their most sensitive accounts and act swiftly to secure them, preventing privilege escalation and stopping breaches.' – Joanne Wu, Vice President, Business Development, CyberArk To learn more about the Tenable One platform and its vast ecosystem of integrations, visit 1 IBM report: Capturing the cybersecurity dividend: How security platforms generate business value, January 2025
