A quick bit of recent history concerning two little known Israeli companies, Narus and Verint. They have helped the NSA spy on the planet. Narus, in 2010, was folded into Boeing, one of the largest defense contractors in the world. Then, in 2014, Boeing sold Narus to Symantec. In 2016, Symantec sold half of itself to the Carlyle Group. So Narus, a little engine that could, has been keeping very high-priced company.
