Arctic Wolf Networks Inc. has acquired BlackBerry’s Cylance endpoint security unit for $160 million in cash and 5.5 million Arctic Wolf shares. This acquisition is a significant strategic move for Arctic Wolf, enhancing its cybersecurity offerings. The deal marks a substantial decrease in value for Cylance, which BlackBerry acquired for $1.4 billion in 2018. The sale reflects a shift in BlackBerry’s focus away from endpoint security and towards software for cyber and IoT. This move is expected to close in BlackBerry’s fiscal Q4 and will reshape the cybersecurity landscape, providing Arctic Wolf with valuable assets and technologies.
