Nikesh Arora, the CEO of cybersecurity company Palo Alto Networks, has entered the billionaires' club after a hefty paycheck he received from the firm. The 55-year-old's feat is quite rare as there are only a few non-founder billionaire tech CEOs in the world. Palo Alto Networks handed Arora a $125 million stock and options compensation package when he was hired in 2018. Since then its share price has more than quadrupled. Arora's stake is now worth $830 million.
