I found a reference to the AWS cloud and the Darktrace vSensor.
I am sure the AWS cloud is operated by the same AWS, Amazon Web Services
listed as a technology partner on the Darktrace website.
So, what is a vSensor?

Woah You mentioned the T word. The UN Security Council will be interested in that.

There is no way through the Darktrace cyber defense technology systems. Point Blank. A unique approach to cyber defense systems.
Bring me the heads of the Killnet Group and the Nevada Group.

The seizure of assets comes before the inquiry and examination of every transaction and the close scrutiny of trades going back through time during the search for evidence of insider trading and it goes on until all the answers are found. If there are any issues left to clarify all the documents and emails are examined again and social media is searched at 4 Terabytes a second to find any unusual messages or posts which could be of interest.

Well that is how I would do it. Except I would do it at 16 Tbytes/second to save time.

Why did SVB have to sell the Government bonds at a loss? The regulators are never going to explain every stage of the meltdown. So yes, the collapse came after loss came after the sale of assets which came after the as yet unknown events which led up to the sale of assets before the attempt to fundraise to avert the collapse which came before the trading halt before the seizure of assets.

One of the root causes of the SVB meltdown is crypto-currencies and the recent frauds and any other unknown criminal activities that may come to light. There are other causes, balanced view and all that.
Think about it. The scenario. Asset seizure. Computers removed and examined, every lead followed back to the origin and cross referenced. Is there any missing money and where did it go? Where are all the paper documents? The contents of the waste paper bins, carpets and flooring up, floor safes, hidden compartments and rooms and what is behind the wallpaper?

I got 8 News channels here, streaming simultaneously from around the Globe. Every one is talking about the same thing. Singapore, Tokyo, Hongkong, London, New York, Boston, Toronto, Mumbai. The financial pundits are hard at work. Some calming, some calamitous, some predictions of doom.
There will be some RNS announcements tomorrow. Don't forget daylight saving time when Wall St opens. The central banks will sort it out.

The first analyst comment on results day was rushed out before 8am. Does anyone really believe they read and understood everything before 07.40hrs? Beware false prophets and fools.

The author has chosen one issue which is clear from the title. Darktrace adjustments undermine investor confidence. Do IC think that is true would be my first question.

Could be useful sometime.

FEB 1 - prediction World GDP will increase by$200Trillion by 2030 due to AI,
another estimates an added $14T, more realistic, not sure if that was US GDP.
200Trill is 3X+ current World GDP so I would question that figure.

I found an AI company listed in US with short positions over 27% yesterday. MCAP 2.5 Bill.
One of the generative-AI ones. Nothing to do with Darktrace.
Another find was an app that identifies houseplants from an uploaded picture. Bizarre.
No end to this research. The security risks are not confined to machine-code level.

Still trying to find any connection linking the US Government sanctions announced on FEB 9 and the FEB 9 announcement of the availability of PREVENT/OT[TM].

I found some clues in the write-up on the Darktrace website.
The RNS announcement on FEB 9. Availability of PREVENT/OT[TM].
The clues as to the meaning of OT, still not 100% sure so won't post.
FEB 9 was a Thursday.

Silicon Valley Bank closed down. I mean permanently down.
There should be plenty of reading in the weekend press.

Therein is the key, market, markets, timing. Beware false prophets and fools.

Anyone who bought the recent dip here in this market or a FTSE 100 tracker start of the pandemic or mining stocks early '16 on . ad liberandum, timed the market.

Mr. Bogle was plain wrong. Terminology. The market? Which specific market was he referring to?

Correction. Spoke too soon. Could be Black Friday '23. Beware false prophets and fools ARM were never going to list in London. They are in a different sector.

The US banking sector could continue yesterday's trend towards collapse. Venture capital drying up apparently.
