September 29, 2020

The Awake platform is recognized for bringing great value with outstanding ROI between features and cost within the NDR market and ranked #1 by Enterprise Management Associates (EMA). Awake is also widely acknowledged for NDR technical leadership by many, including Emerging Technology Research, IT Central Station and Frost & Sullivan. In 2019, Awake received Frost & Sullivan’s Visionary Innovation Leadership Award for its innovation, high customer satisfaction and overall performance.

“We see an exciting future for Awake within the Arista family,” said Rahul Kashyap, CEO for Awake Security. “Awake pioneered NDR platforms for real-time AI-driven situational awareness to secure digital assets and then respond to mitigate those risks. This acquisition allows us to further that mission.”

“We warmly welcome Awake Security to the Arista team,” stated Anshul Sadana, COO for Arista Networks. “With the proliferation of users, devices and Internet of Things (IOT), Awake’s best of breed threat detection platform is synergistic with Arista’s market-leading cognitive cloud networks, delivering proactive security for our customers.”

The transaction is expected to close in Arista’s fiscal Q4 FY2020, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. This acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on fiscal 2020 operating results.
