The only CA product at FB is Ecometer. Hilarious since it is was dropped.

I think Facebook is a mainframe customer. Probably DB2 Tools to manage SAP stuff.

Doesn't FB use PAM?

Years ago at a town hall, I remember Bike Boy mentioning that FB was a CA customer, but I'm not sure of the product.

This is ridiculous. FB is looking for something in intrusion prevention space. CA SBU doesn't have any product in that space.

Who knows, I would imagine they could get a pretty good deal on it.

Dream on, Facebook would never invest the cash in CA's legacy software products.
