  + stars: | 2022-12-28 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
That new trend raises the question: Can cybersecurity companies sustain earnings through a recession? Loukas, whose fund holds cybersecurity stocks such as CrowdStrike and Zscaler , said that as more businesses move into the cloud and cybersecurity threats evolve, companies will continue to prioritize spending on protection regardless of economic conditions. According to FactSet data, analysts expect the London-listed stock to rise by 89% in the next year. Shares in Silicon Valley-headquartered firms Zscaler and Palo Alto Networks are also expected to rise by 62% and 45%, respectively. Meanwhile, analysts at Mizuho said CrowdStrike , a Texas-based cybersecurity firm, is an "unrivaled" market leader.

A startup building encryption software to secure business communications on Slack and Teams just raised $11 million. London-based startup Worldr has built an additional layer of "zero-trust" infrastructure offering security, privacy, and compliance for business communication apps. As the company scaled into new markets, it became a highly regulated business, Buchan told Insider. This means that despite using Slack or Teams for business communications, those companies can't access the customer's data. The company has built integrations for Microsoft Teams, Slack, and WhatsApp, and has Microsoft Outlook in the works.
☆ Darktrace sticks to guidance, wary of FX headwinds
  + stars: | 2022-10-12 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
LONDON, Oct 12 (Reuters) - British cybersecurity company Darktrace (DARK.L), which in August was the subject of takeover interest, said it was maintaining its annual guidance but warned that foreign exchange headwinds could weigh on its performance. U.S. technology investor Thoma Bravo said last month that it would not make an offer for Darktrace after it failed to agree terms of a deal. It has since recovered around 6% in value, but is still showing a nearly 19% loss so far this year. "Darktrace is maintaining its expectation for FY 2023 year-over-year revenue growth of between 30% and 33%, though it will continue to monitor FX rates, and their potential impacts on revenue, for downside movement," the company said in a statement.

☆ T-Mobile US transmits clear signal to investors

NEW YORK, Sept 9 (Reuters Breakingviews) - T-Mobile US (TMUS.O) is sending a clear signal about the benefits of being bigger. The $182 billion company announced a $14 billion share buyback program on Thursday, reflecting the fact that both profit and subscriber numbers are rising. Fears that mobile prices would rise when T-Mobile acquired SoftBank’s Sprint have not materialized, allaying at least one of the potential objections to the merger. Last quarter, it raised its forecast for additional subscribers for this year to as high as 6.3 million from a previous high of 5.8 million.
