Action1 got into the news recently via a leaked email that sparked a discussion on Reddit about the company potentially getting purchased by CrowdStrike. Yes, the same CrowdStrike that has been in the news recently for all the wrong reasons.
You can put that to bed as of today as the company just announced its decision to remain a founder-led company. Despite receiving multiple acquisition inquiries over the past year, including from well-known industry players, Action1 has chosen to continue operating independently to fully realize its vision.
Alex Vovk, CEO and Co-Founder of Action1 had this to say:
“We are honored by the interest we have received from major industry players, as it validates our strategy and leadership in the space. However, after careful consideration, we have determined that remaining founder-led is the best path forward. While it is tough to turn away from significant financial opportunities, we believe our future is far brighter as an independent company.”
Action1’s vision is a world where cyberattacks exploiting vulnerabilities are entirely prevented across all types of devices, operating systems, and applications.
Mike Walters, President and Co-Founder of Action1 added this:
“We are excited to continue on the path of innovation and are deeply grateful to our customers worldwide for their trust and support.”
So I think think that todays announcement should put any rumours of Action1 being purchased to bed once and for all.
