Description: AKAM Akamai Technologies October 31, 2025

Akamai Technologies (NASDAQ: AKAM) delivers a suite of security, cloud-computing, and content-delivery services worldwide. Its security portfolio spans web-application and API protection, bot-abuse mitigation, account takeover defense, content-scraper blocking, and micro-service traffic shielding. On the cloud side, Akamai offers compute, storage, networking, database, and container-management capabilities, plus a Kubernetes-focused App Platform with ready-to-run templates. The delivery arm provides web and mobile performance acceleration, global traffic management, load balancing, large-scale testing, real-user monitoring, and media-streaming solutions such as video, gaming, and broadcast services.

Key operating metrics underscore Akamai’s market position: FY 2023 revenue reached $3.9 billion, up ≈ 11 % YoY, driven largely by a 19 % surge in security services revenue as enterprises grapple with rising API-based attacks. The company processes over 150 Tbps of traffic daily across its edge network, supporting roughly 30 % of global internet traffic-a critical advantage as edge-computing adoption accelerates. Macro-level drivers include the projected CAGR of 15 % for the global cloud-security market through 2028 and sustained demand for low-latency content delivery amid the growth of streaming video and interactive gaming.
