#4: FireEye Sale
Consolidation’s feverish pace was no more evident than in the security channel.
FireEye surprised many by selling its products business, including the FireEye name, for $1.2 billion. The buyer was a consortium led by private equity firm Symphony Technology Group.
The transaction separates FireEye’s network, email, endpoint and cloud security products, along with the related security management and orchestration platform, from Mandiant’s controls-agnostic software and services.
