Cognyte Secures ~$5 Million Agreement with National Security Agency in APAC

Continued customer expansion highlights platform depth and Cognyte's growing role in mission-critical intelligence operations

HERZLIYA, Israel, June 24, 2026Cognyte Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CGNT) (“Cognyte”), a global leader in software-driven technology for investigative analytics, today announced a ~$5 million agreement with a strategic, long-standing national security customer in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.

About the Agreement

The agency relies on Cognyte for broad coverage across the full range of its national security activities, where Cognyte serves as a mission critical part of its operations. Following a review of its evolving requirements, the agency selected Cognyte to support two priorities: expanding its network intelligence capabilities to keep pace with evolving intelligence requirements and advancing its underlying infrastructure for the future.

The capability expansion enables the agency’s teams to expand their comprehensive visibility as operational environments grow more complex. In parallel, the infrastructure upgrade moves the agency to a more advanced, future-ready foundation, strengthening performance, scalability and resilience, and preparing it to adopt Cognyte’s latest AI-powered capabilities and analytics as the agency’s mission evolves.

What This Reflects About Our Business

Agencies worldwide are operating in an environment of growing complexity: proliferating data, evolving threats and continuously changing networks, driving sustained demand for advanced intelligence and investigative solutions. Cognyte’s leadership in this market positions it to capture that demand on two fronts: deepening relationships with existing customers, who expand their reliance on the platform as their missions grow, and winning new customers across regions and mission areas. This agreement is a clear example of the first: a long-standing customer extending its investment, and reflects the platform strength that, together with our continued new-customer wins, drives the durable, profitable growth at the core of our strategy.
