Background
Radware appears in boycott discussions because of its identity: it is a veteran Israeli cybersecurity company of the Zisapel family's RAD Group, founded and headquartered in Tel Aviv, whose Israeli employees serve IDF reserve duty. This research found no documented corporate cash donation by Radware to the Israeli military or to war-related charities after October 7, 2023; its documented war-time role is commercial and technical — protecting Israeli websites such as Rotter from anti-Israel hacktivist attacks and running the threat-intelligence reporting that documents attacks on Israel.
