The complaint filed by the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith alleges that Alarum Technologies issued materially misleading statements regarding its business practices. Specifically, the suit claims the company failed to disclose that NetNut was integrating customer home internet devices into a secondary network without authorization. This practice allegedly provided a mechanism for cybercriminals to obscure their digital locations, thereby increasing the company's legal risk.

Investors contend that these omissions led to inflated valuations, causing financial harm once the true nature of the subsidiary's operations became public.
