About
Tines is a Dublin-based no-code workflow automation platform that originated as a security operations automation tool and has expanded to serve broader IT, infrastructure, and business process automation needs — enabling security and IT teams to build complex automated workflows without programming by connecting APIs, creating conditional logic, and deploying AI agents that act autonomously on data. Founded in 2018 by Eoin Hinchy and Thomas Kinsella (former security engineers at DocuSign and eBay) and backed by Accel and Addition, Tines achieved unicorn status in February 2025 at a $1.125 billion valuation, processing over 1 billion automated actions weekly for customers including Coinbase, Databricks, and LinkedIn, with 200% revenue growth over 18 months.

About
Palo Alto Networks, Inc. is a Santa Clara, California-based cybersecurity platform company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: PANW) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — providing network security, cloud security, and AI-driven security operations through three integrated security platforms: Strata (network security — next-generation firewalls, SD-WAN, Zero Trust Network Access), Prisma Cloud (cloud security posture management, cloud workload protection, CSPM/CWPP), and Cortex (AI-driven security operations — XSIAM extended security intelligence and automation management, XDR endpoint detection and response, XSOAR security orchestration) through approximately 15,000 employees worldwide. In fiscal year 2024 (ending July 2024), Palo Alto Networks reported revenues of $8.0 billion (+16% year-over-year), with next-generation security Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR — Prisma Cloud and Cortex subscriptions) growing 42% to $4.2 billion as large enterprise and government customers consolidated security toolsets onto Palo Alto Networks' platform versus maintaining dozens of point solution security vendors. CEO Nikesh Arora (joined 2018 from SoftBank as Chairman and CEO) has executed the "platformization" strategy — convincing large enterprise security buyers to replace 10-15 individual security vendors (email security, endpoint protection, cloud workload protection, network detection) with a consolidated Palo Alto Networks platform contract that provides 80% of point-solution capabilities at 50% of the total cost — using the first-year transition economics to accelerate platform adoption through deferred commitment offers (paying a lower platform price in year 1 in exchange for multi-year platform commitment in years 2-4).
