Dragos says it has closed its acquisitions of NetRise and runZero. The company frames the move as part of expanding capabilities in industrial and operational technology (OT) cybersecurity, where threats can disrupt critical services.
The acquisitions close as Accenture completes a separate transaction involving Dragos. SecurityWeek reports that Accenture’s deal is valued at $4.1 billion and results in Accenture acquiring a majority stake in Dragos. The Next Web adds context by quoting remarks from Dmitri Alperovitch, the CrowdStrike co-founder who is returning to the Dragos board, linking the work to protecting essential infrastructure such as power and water during adversary attacks. Across the outlets, the focus stays on corporate milestones—closing the acquisitions and Accenture’s control—while the commentary differs in emphasis between deal mechanics and the practical OT security stakes.
