At $11.4B revenue run-rate (+24% YoY), Next-Gen Security ARR grew 60% (28% organic) with 120% NRR and single-digit churn, but only among ~2,280 multi-product accounts, targeting 4,000 by 2030 (SaaStr). The $25B CyberArk acquisition closed February 2026, beat internal targets by 3–6 months after an initial 25% stock drop, stock since doubled to ~$265B market cap.
