Second thought it is not crazy. I do not think most of us can fathom the revenue Microsoft Azure generates.

Microsoft charges $1.40 per authentication in their Azure AD.



https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/

In 2015 it was leaked that Azure AD does more than 18 billion authentications per week. That is 72 billion authentications a month. $108 billion per month revenue for authentications, not to mention all other services that Azure is producing if you go by their calculator online.

Per CJ/ACS "if you are authenticating utilizing Microsoft Azure, that is us".

It is mid 2017, I assume authentications have only increased. MS is spending $1B per month on their Cloud infrastructure is quite reasonable.

It is fair to say if it is ACS/SFOR products are being used in MS Azure AD authentications that getting paid a small % of that $1.40/authentication will generate a very nice check to ACS/SFOR per year.

72Bx12=864 authentications/per year
864 x $1.40 = $1.2096 Trillion X 1% =$12B for ACS/SFOR?

Who says this company is not worth $8B?
