It was a tough week for cybersecurity stocks that couldn't escape the broader software sell off. The CyberIndex sank 6.5% for the week, with just four of the group's 20 stocks ending in the black. Cisco Systems, the largest company by market cap, was the biggest winner with a 5% gain.
Lumen Technologies was the worst of the rest. The stock ended down nearly 30% last week. Varonis Systems also saw steep losses, dropping 25%.
