Microsoft's acquisition of the week is... spins wheel ... Mandiant?
•Microsoft acquired cybersecurity firms throughout 2021.
•A rumored Mandiant acquisition discussion may hint at Microsoft's 2022 kickoff to major cybersecurity firm buys.
•The report about said discussions comes not long after Microsoft's mammoth $70 billion purchase of gaming company Activision Blizzard.
Microsoft has deep, deep pockets, and if recent news is anything to go by, it won't stop spending until it's gobbled up any company it deems worthy of attention. Last year, it acquired CloudKnox Security, RiskIQ, ReFirm, and a host of others. And now, it's back in the forest, hunting for game with its big ol' money rifle. At least, that's what's happening according to a recent report.
As told by Bloomberg, cybersecurity firm Mandiant could be Microsoft's next acquisition. The deal would help Microsoft bolster its ever-evolving efforts to keep customers safe and protected.
According to the report, involved parties are only in the discussion phase, so an offer has yet to be placed on the table and isn't even guaranteed to happen.
