What Is The Lawsuit About?

The lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased securities during the period of March 20, 2025 and July 2, 2026, inclusive (“the Class Period”). The lawsuit alleges that Alarum made false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (i) an Alarum subsidiary, NetNut, was engaging in illegal activity by linking customer home internet devices into another network without the customer’s consent; (ii) this activity allows cyber criminals to conceal their locations; and (iii) the foregoing materially heightened Alarum technologies’ legal exposure and materially threatened its business prospects.

On July 2, 2026, Reuters published an article entitled “Google disrupts NetNut proxy network used in malware operations.” The article reported that, acting in partnership with the FBI, Google “weakened a network of internet-connected devices being used to conceal and route malicious online traffic, acting against the NetNut residential proxy operator and the Popa botnet.” According to the article, Google stated, “We believe our coordinated actions have caused significant degradation to NetNut’s proxy network and its business operations, reducing the available pool of devices for the proxy operator by millions.” On this news, Alarum’s stock price fell $1.67 per share, or 20.8%, to close at $6.35 per share on July 2, 2026.

On July 2, 2026, after market hours, Alarum published a press release stating that the Company had been “made aware of the seizure of certain domains associated with NetNut by the FBI” and that “Alarum takes this matter seriously and will fully cooperate with law enforcement to ensure any misuse of its infrastructure is thoroughly investigated.” Additionally, Bloomberg published an article entitled “FBI Probes Whether Alarum Unit is Behind Co-Opted Home Devices,” reporting that “the FBI is investigating whether a subsidiary of the data-collection firm [Alarum] had a role in linking customers’ home internet devices without their consent into a network that people can use to disguise their locations.”

Over the following two days, Alarum released two more press releases. On July 3, 2026, Alarum stated that, due to the FBI’s seizure of domains associated with NetNut, “the Company is currently experiencing disruptions to a portion of its services. If these disruptions continue for an extended period, they are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, financial results and its ability to provide certain services to customers.” On July 4, 2026, the Company reported that it had “decided to temporarily pause traffic through the relevant network services for several days,” which would significantly reduce the availability of the Company’s services. On this news, Alarum’s stock price fell $3.27 per share, or 51.49%, to close at $3.08 per share on July 6, 2026.
