The Office of the Personal Data Protection Committee, or PDPC, has ordered an investigation into the case of personal data and ID-card photos from government databases being posted online. It confirmed that this is not a data leak, but rather unlawful access to the system by a criminal network that created illegal access channels. This constitutes an offence under Section 7 of the Computer Crime Act. The response measures are divided into three parts: prosecuting those who post or disseminate the data, which is the downstream end; inspecting and patching vulnerabilities with the upstream agencies, namely the Department of Land Transport and the Department of Provincial Administration; and cracking down on criminal groups that trade data or access channels, which is the midstream, in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, the Central Investigation Bureau, and the National Cyber Security Agency. Citizens who have suffered harm can exercise their right to file a complaint with the PDPC.
Commvault Enables FedRAMP High Cloud for Federal Agencies
Commvault Systems has enabled its managed service provider partners to deliver FedRAMP High Authorized Commvault Cloud for Government services to U.S. federal agencies and defense contractors, broadening the company's public sector reach. The move lands on a stock with a 7 day share price return of 10.29% and a 90 day share price gain of 11.67%, though its 1 year total shareholder return is down 23.35% while the 3 year total shareholder return is up 111.68%. The most followed valuation narrative puts fair value at $161.15 against a last close of $145.21, implying roughly 10% upside, and rests on analyst expectations of about 10.6% annual revenue growth, profit margins rising toward 9.8%, and an 8.85% discount rate. That story leans on recurring SaaS economics, including 63% SaaS ARR growth, a 45% increase in multi-product customers, and 125% SaaS net dollar retention. A contrasting read notes the stock trades at a P/E of 88.1x versus 30.5x for the wider US Software group and a fair ratio of 38.7x, signaling valuation risk if sentiment cools.
Varonis Systems Launches Data Lifecycle Management Capability
Varonis Systems, Inc. launched Varonis Data Lifecycle Management, a new capability that automatically identifies and remediates redundant, obsolete, and trivial data across enterprise environments using its existing Data Security Platform. The launch ties data cleanup directly to sensitivity, access, and activity context, aiming to reduce storage waste, improve AI output quality, and help organizations address compliance exposures from scattered sensitive information. The DLM tool stacks on top of Varonis Atlas, the AI security platform that went generally available in March 2026, which targets discovery, posture management, and runtime protection for AI workloads. Together, Atlas and DLM broaden Varonis' role from guarding unstructured data to governing how that data is stored, used, cleaned up, and exposed across Snowflake, Claude, Cursor, and other cloud and AI partnerships. Varonis Systems' narrative projects $1.1 billion revenue and $120.7 million earnings by 2029, yielding a $50.68 fair value, an 8% upside to its current price, while the most pessimistic analysts were already modeling about US$1.0 billion of 2029 revenue.
