proxy network operations technical
"regarding recent reports concerning its proxy network operations."
Proxy network operations are the systems and processes that collect, distribute and record shareholder voting instructions across the chain of custodians, brokers, proxy advisory firms and the company’s transfer agent. Think of it as the logistics network that delivers and counts corporate ballots; it matters to investors because flaws or delays can change who controls votes on board members, mergers or pay plans, affect shareholder rights, and create regulatory or reputational risk.
Report of Foreign Private Issuer regulatory
"Form 6-K Report of Foreign Private Issuer Pursuant to Rule 13a-16"
A report of a foreign private issuer is a formal filing that a non‑U.S. company makes to U.S. regulators to share important business, financial, or governance information with American investors. Think of it as a regular update or press packet that keeps investors informed about events that could change a company’s value—like earnings, management changes, contracts, or regulatory developments—so investors can make timely, informed decisions.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
material adverse effect financial
"they are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, financial results"
A material adverse effect is a significant negative change or event that substantially reduces a company’s business, financial condition, or future prospects — think of it like a sudden major engine failure that makes a car unreliable. Investors care because such an event can lower expected profits, trigger contract clauses (allowing counterparties to renegotiate or walk away), and prompt swift stock-price reassessment based on the higher risk and uncertainty.
Risk Factors regulatory
"the other risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report"
Risk factors are elements or conditions that could cause an investment's value to decrease or lead to potential losses. They are like warning signs or obstacles that can affect the success of an investment, making it uncertain or more unpredictable. Recognizing risk factors helps investors understand the possible challenges and make more informed decisions.

Alarum Technologies Provides Update Regarding Recent Law Enforcement Action

 

Tel Aviv, Israel, July 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alarum Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: ALAR, TASE: ALAR) (“Alarum” or the “Company”) today provided a further update to its announcement issued on July 2, 2026 regarding recent reports concerning its proxy network operations.

 

As previously disclosed, on July 2, 2026, the Company and its subsidiary, NetNut Ltd. (“NetNut”), became aware that certain domains associated with NetNut had been seized by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations (“FBI”).

 

Since that announcement, the Company has continued to analyze the incident and additional domains associated with NetNut have also been seized.

 

As a result of these developments, 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 its customers.

 

The Company is devoting substantial resources to investigating the circumstances surrounding these events and is working intensively to obtain additional information regarding the nature and scope of the incident. As of the date and time of this press release, neither the Company nor NetNut has been formally contacted by the FBI or any other governmental or regulatory authority in connection with these matters.

 

The Company itself is continuing to investigate whether its network or services have been used for malicious, fraudulent or unlawful purposes by third parties. Alarum takes this matter seriously and will fully cooperate with law enforcement to ensure any misuse of its infrastructure is thoroughly investigated and those responsible are held to account.
