Let us do a reality check. The largest pure play cyber security company in the world is Palo Alto Networks or PANW. It has a capitalization of of 96 Billion but has annual revenues of over 7 billion. Also they only have about $8 billion in cash and about 342 Million shares at about $300/share. They could not acquire a company for 65 to 125 billion for cash and the dilution of a stock transaction would be too great since the stock would crater and the board would never approve this since they would be only buying good will and no revenue stream. It would take a company the size of Microsoft to make such an outrageous acquisition.. Microsoft's largest acquisition was Activision Blizzard for $68Billion and they had got over 7 billion in annual revenues. I could not find a single start up company acquired without a revenue base for more that $200-500 million simply for their technology.

Run the numbers and do a little DD for a reality check.since this is just day dreaming!
