  Thoma Bravo has been acquiring companies in the infosec space. I’m assuming they’re trying to build a portfolio and maybe consolidate at some point.

    To add more specificity they now own Barracuda, Centrify, ConnectWise, idaptiv, imperva, imprivata, LogRythm, McAfee, solarwinds, Sophos, and Veracode in the "Current Investments" and "Security" sector defined on their own search filter[1].
