Cisco is acquiring Galileo, an AI observability specialist, to strengthen Splunk's position in the AI monitoring market. The deal is expected to close in July 2026. Galileo provides tools to evaluate AI output quality, detect errors before they reach users, and improve AI agent behaviour in production. The platform monitors hallucinations, bias, security risks and cost metrics across the entire agent development lifecycle, offering real-time observability for multi-agent systems. The acquisition will integrate Galileo into Splunk Observability Cloud, expanding existing AI agent monitoring capabilities. Galileo offers over 20 evaluation metrics including hallucination detection and supports major AI platforms like OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock. Cisco and Galileo previously collaborated on Cisco's AGNTCY initiative. Both companies will operate independently until the deal closes.

Cisco Systems has joined Project Glasswing alongside Anthropic, Amazon and other tech companies to detect software vulnerabilities using advanced AI models. The collaboration includes early access to Anthropic's Claude Mythos Preview and has already identified security flaws missed by existing tools. The initiative aligns with Cisco's strategy of integrating AI-driven security capabilities into its networking and collaboration products. For investors, the partnership positions Cisco to address software risks for large enterprise and government customers as AI reshapes cybersecurity. Cisco shares currently trade at $83.17, approximately 7% below the analyst target of $89.04. The company has raised $295 million to date, with recent 30-day returns of roughly 7%. Success depends on real-world effectiveness and maintaining customer trust in AI-based defences.
