I think Cisco is certainly very aware of SFOR. I think that Cisco realized they could spend considerably less by acquiring Duo, and their existing customer base, even adding in the cost of Duo's settlement with SFOR. They would end up paying ongoing royalties & licensing fees, but it would quite possibly still be cheaper than an outright buyout of SFOR. The customer base of Duo also gives them extensive marketing opportunities for Cisco's other products and services too! Just IMHO! ☺
