Founder of Palo Alto Networks Releases New Anti-Cloud Cybersecurity Company

Nir Zuk, founder of Palo Alto Networks, the $135 Billion worth multinational cybersecurity company, releases new AI powered start-up. His new company, Cylake, defies the typical cloud-based model while being AI powered and primarily uses physical assets. With over $40 Million dollars in seed funding, Zuk is confident about the market of his company. However, many people consider hardware start-ups as "risky" because many cybersecurity tools now run in AWS and cloud platforms. But, this isn't the first time Zuk is receiving backlash-- he was also seen as a contrarian for starting a cybersecurity cloud-based company in 2005.
