I-Aerospace conglomerate yaseYurophu i-Airbus ikhansele izinhlelo zokuthola ibhizinisi lenkampani ye-IT yaseFrance i-Atos 'Big Data and Security (BDS) emasontweni ambalwa ngemva kokuvula izingxoxo zokuthenga okungenzeka.

Ayikho inkampani enikeze incazelo ngale ntuthuko engazelelwe. Esikhundleni salokho, ezitatimendeni ezifushane, bobabili u-Atos no-Airbus badalule ukuthi izingxoxo ngokuthengisa seziphelile.

Amasheya Plunge

“Ngemuva kokucutshungulwa kahle kwazo zonke izici zokutholwa komugqa webhizinisi we-ATOS' BDS (Big Data and Security), i-Airbus inqume ukuthi ngeke isikhathi eside siphishekele izingxoxo ne-ATOS mayelana nalokhu kuthengiselana okungenzeka,” kusho i-Airbus.

U-Atos uthe kunjalo esahlaziya imithelela yesinqumo se-Airbus kanye nokuhlola ezinye izinketho ezihambisana “nezimfuneko ezizimele zombuso waseFrance.”

Izindaba ze-Airbus ishiya isivumelwano - ilinganiselwa ku-$1.65 billion kuya ku-$2 billion - ithumele amasheya e-Atos ekhathazekile ehla ngoMashi 19 ngama-25% ngesikhathi esisodwa. Kusukela ngomhlaka-2 Jan., amasheya enkampani ehle ngaphezu kuka-70% esuka ku-€6.99 ($7.59 USD ngamanani okushintshaniswa amanje) aya ku-€1.74 (cishe u-$1.89 USD) ekupheleni kokuhweba ngoMashi 19. Isivumelwano esiwohlokayo siphinde saphoqa i-Atos ukuthi ihlele kabusha izinzuzo zayo zango-2023. ikhishelwa “esikhathini esizayo esiseduze” ngenkathi inkampani ihlaziya “izinketho zamasu.”

Ibhizinisi le-Atos le-BDS elingu-$12 bhiliyoni liletha uchungechunge lwe-cybersecurity, ukuhlaziya idatha enkulu, ubuhlakani bokwenziwa, namandla e-supercomputing. Inkampani inobudlelwano obuseduze nohulumeni wase-France kanye nezempi futhi inenkontileka yokuphatha ukuphepha kwe-inthanethi kuma-Olympics aleli hlobo e-Paris. Lapho izindaba ziqala ukuvela ngezinhlelo ze-Airbus zokuthola i-Atos BDS, umakhi wezindiza wachaza lesi sinyathelo njengento engasheshisa ngokuphawulekayo izinhlelo zayo zokuguqula idijithali futhi iqinise amakhono e-Airbus ekuvikelekeni kwe-inthanethi kanye ne-AI.

Ugqugquzelwe ngokwepolitiki?

Kepha abanye bebenokungabaza ngevelu i-Atos ezoliletha ku-Airbus. Kubikwa ukuthi baphakamise imibuzo mayelana nokuthi ukuthengisa kugqugquzelwe yini kwezepolitiki ukuqinisekisa ukuthi i-Atos - nakho konke ukuxhumana kwayo nohulumeni waseFrance - ngeke ihlale emathangeni omthengi wangaphandle. Umbiko weReuters ngoMashi 19 ucaphune umhlaziyi webhange lokutshala imali ethi isivumelwano bekuzoba “i-negative ye-Airbus, uma kucatshangelwa ukuthi lokhu kungase kube isivumelwano sezombusazwe, kanye nomthelela waso omubi emandleni okuthenga kabusha.” Embikweni, iMorningstar ichaze abanye abenzi bomthetho baseFrance ngokuthi befuna ukwenza iqembu le-BDS libe likazwelonke ukuvimbela ukuthathwa komthengi wangaphandle.

Sekungokwesibili i-Airbus ihoxa ekuthengeni ingxenye yebhizinisi le-Atos le-cybersecurity. Ngo-2022, umdondoshiya waseYurophu wamemezela izinhlelo zokuthola ingxenye encane engama-29.3% ebhizinisini le-Atos 'Evidian cybersecurity, i-BDS eyingxenye yalo.

Ngaleso sikhathi, u-Atos oshisekayo wachaza intshisekelo ye-Airbus yokuba “umnikazi wamasheya wehange” njengobudlelwane obuzosheshisa ukukhula kuka-Evidian ngenkathi “ukuqinisekisa ubukhosi bezobuchwepheshe eFrance naseYurophu,” ekuvikelekeni kwe-cybersecurity, ifu, namanye amakhono athuthukile wekhompyutha.

Kodwa-ke, ngonyaka olandelayo ngoMashi 2023, i-Airbus, esitatimendeni esifushane esifana nalesi esikhishwe kuleli sonto, imise ukutshalwa kwezimali kwe-Evidian bethi akuhambisani nemigomo yenkampani. Khona-ke, njengamanje, kwaba nokuphikiswa kokutshalwa kwezimali okuhleliwe kwe-Airbus ngezizathu ezifanayo. Omunye wabo, i-TCI Fund Management, u-3% wabambiqhaza ku-Airbus, wabiza isivumelwano esihlongozwayo ngaleso sikhathi “njengesicekela phansi inani” le-Airbus. Isikhwama se-TCI siphinde sazwakalisa ukukhathazeka ngokuthi ukutshalwa kwezimali okungenani bekunezisusa zepolitiki.

Kungakhathalekile ukuthi yiziphi izizathu zokuwa kwesivumelwano, iqembu le-Atos le-BDS belizoletha amakhono ku-Airbus abaningi abawabona njengabalulekile ukubhekana nezinsongo ze-cyber ezikhuphukayo emikhakheni yezindiza kanye ne-aerospace. Umbiko wakamuva we-Resecurity yagqamisa izimo ezimbalwa lapho abadlali abakhulu kulo mkhakha, njenge Boeing kanye ne-Airbus, yaba yizisulu zokuhlaselwa kwe-ransomware nokuputshuzwa kwedatha nezinye izigameko lapho abalingisi abasabisayo beqondiswe khona. izikhumulo zezindiza ezinkulu emhlabeni jikelele ekuhlaselweni nge-inthanethi.
