Zscaler Expands Security Reach with Strategic Acquisitions

As of May 28, 2025, there is no indication that Zscaler has acquired Red Canary. However, the cybersecurity company has been busy bolstering its security offerings through several strategic acquisitions over recent years, demonstrating a proactive approach to enhancing its capabilities.

Among its major acquisitions, Zscaler bought Edgewise Networks in May 2020 to strengthen zero trust security by safeguarding application communications within cloud environments. By September 2022, the company integrated ShiftRight’s technology to streamline security operations through workflow automation. Similarly, in 2021, Zscaler acquired Smokescreen Technologies to add advanced active defense to its Zero Trust Exchange, thereby boosting its responses to complex cyber threats. Reuters reported on these developments, highlighting Zscaler's focused efforts to address emerging cybersecurity challenges.

Most recently, Zscaler’s acquisition of Canonic Security in February 2023 underscored its commitment to countering SaaS supply chain risks. The company continues to integrate solutions that protect data accessed via third-party apps. These moves reflect Zscaler's strategy of proactively enhancing its platforms to address the evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats.

4 minutes agoDELL

Dell Technologies has adjusted its financial outlook, anticipating an annual adjusted earnings per share of $9.40 for fiscal year 2026, an increase from the earlier estimate of $9.30. This updated forecast comes in response to a significant rise in orders for its AI server business, highlighting the robust demand within this industry sector. Reuters reported that Dell has recorded $12.1 billion in AI server orders for the current quarter alone, which surpasses the entirety of shipments for fiscal 2025. This surge has resulted in a backlog valued at $14.4 billion. Additionally, Dell's AI servers are being deployed by prominent clients like Elon Musk's xAI and CoreWeave. The company's role in advanced computing is further underscored by its collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy, which plans to utilize Dell and Nvidia technology in its forthcoming supercomputer, Doudna. Dell's financial projections also indicate second-quarter revenue between $28.5 billion and $29.5 billion, exceeding analysts' predictions of $25.05 billion. Moreover, revenue from Dell's infrastructure solutions group has climbed by 12%, alongside a 5% increase in the client solutions group, which includes PCs. These figures reinforce Dell's strategic positioning and growth trajectory within the rapidly expanding AI server market.

U.S. Department of Justice Moves to Drop Boeing 737 MAX Fraud Charge

U.S. Department of Justice Moves to Drop Boeing 737 MAX Fraud Charge

19 minutes agoBA

The U.S. Department of Justice has taken a significant step by requesting a judge to dismiss the criminal fraud charge against Boeing related to the 737 MAX crashes. This development suggests a potential resolution for the aerospace giant, highlighting a settlement that allows Boeing to avoid a felony conviction. This settlement, as Reuters reported, is crucial as such a conviction could have affected Boeing's operations as a federal contractor. Boeing's settlement involves a hefty payout of over $1.1 billion. This includes a fine of $243.6 million, $444.5 million allocated to compensate victims' families, and more than $455 million aimed at enhancing compliance, safety, and quality systems. The agreement also entails Boeing appointing an independent compliance consultant to oversee its safety and reform measures, while the company's board is required to engage directly with the victims' families. Despite the apparent resolution, the settlement has faced criticism, particularly from some of the victims' families. They argue that the deal doesn't hold Boeing adequately accountable and have expressed a desire for a full trial. The agreement also avoids a trial that was scheduled to begin on June 23, related to allegations that Boeing misled regulators about a key flight control system in the 737 MAX. As AP News highlighted, this approach aims to enhance compliance while allowing Boeing to move forward without the burden of a felony conviction.

Ben & Jerry's Sparks Tension with Unilever Over Gaza Conflict

Ben & Jerry's Sparks Tension with Unilever Over Gaza Conflict

49 minutes agoUL

Ben & Jerry's, known for its social activism, recently intensified its stance on the Gaza conflict by declaring the situation in Gaza a 'genocide'. This bold statement, made on May 29, 2025, marks a significant move in the company's commitment to human rights and peace, directly aligning with global protests and activism. This declaration has added to the growing tension between Ben & Jerry's and its parent company, Unilever, which has been ongoing due to differing views on social issues, as reported by Reuters. In March 2025, Ben & Jerry's filed a lawsuit against Unilever, accusing them of unlawfully removing CEO David Stever due to the brand's social and political activities. The lawsuit claims that Unilever violated the terms of their 2000 acquisition by dismissing Stever without consulting Ben & Jerry's advisory committee. Allegations of censorship also surfaced in November 2024, with Ben & Jerry's accusing Unilever of attempting to silence the brand's support for Palestinian refugees, as covered by AP News. The tensions between Ben & Jerry's and Unilever originated back in 2021 when the ice cream maker decided to halt sales in Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, considering the move inconsistent with its values. This action led to legal disputes and Unilever's sale of Ben & Jerry's Israel division, a decision that Ben & Jerry's opposed. The ongoing disputes highlight the complexities companies face in balancing governance with activism and brand integrity.
