They've also been a nexus of cyber security: Palo Alto Networks, Checkpoint, Wiz, etc are all Israeli companies.
Which is surprising that these organizations have trust; like our employers probably wouldn't be comfortable shipping all their code to / embedding agents from cybersecurity firms in Russia
Palo Alto Networks is not an Israeli company. But it has acquired many Israeli companies
It's the same skill set, many acquire it via the IDF, so unsurprising.
Palo Alto used booth babes in 2025. I have zero respect for them since that.
