Cyber attacks targeting corporate cloud services have increased significantly in the last few months as cyber criminals look to exploit the rise in remote working to gain access to corporate accounts.
The coronavirus pandemic and the resulting social distancing measures have forced organisations and employees to adapt to working from home with the aid of cloud-based collaboration tools.
But the rise in use of these services – which allow users to login and gain access to corporate resources remotely – has also led to a spike in hackers looking to take advantage of their increasing popularity in order to steal login credentials, sensitive information and other data.
CyberX was founded in 2013 and has raised $48 million to build its cybersecurity platform for IoT and industrial control systems.
Microsoft is reportedly in the process of acquiring CyberX, an Israeli cybersecurity company focused on building technology to fight threats to the Internet of Things (IoT), the Industrial IoT, and connected devices.
Talk of the acquisition surfaced this week in Globes, an Israeli business news website, which cites sources who claim the transaction is valued at $165 million. CyberX has so far raised $48 million over five funding rounds from investors including Inven Capital, Qualcomm Ventures, Norwest Venture Partners, Glilot Capital Partners, Flint Capital, ff Venture Capital, and OurCrowd. Its latest round raised $18 million in March 2019.
