London IT management firm announces security platform acquisition

A London IT management company has announced its acquisition of a new security platform.

Kaseya, a provider of IT and security management solutions for managed service providers (MSPs) and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), has announced the acquisition of RocketCyber.

RocketCyber is the industry’s only cloud-agent security operations centre that requires no hardware or specialized equipment.

The terms of the acquisition have not been disclosed.

Fred Voccola, CEO of Kaseya, commented: “The addition of RocketCyber makes Kaseya IT Complete the only integrated platform in the market to deliver managed SOC, automated internal threat detection, credential monitoring, anti-phishing and more for a truly comprehensive, end-to-end cybersecurity suite that tackles all of today’s modern-day threats.

“With this acquisition, we’ve doubled down on our security investments to provide our customers with access to experts who can continuously monitor their IT environments without the cost and complexity of disparate tools.”

Carl Banzhof, CEO and co-founder of RocketCyber, said: “When Billy Austin and I came together to found RocketCyber, our mission was to bring high-end cybersecurity capabilities to the masses and safeguard organisations against the onslaught of cyberattacks and cybercriminals.

“RocketCyber is the culmination of our combined 50-plus years of experience in creating intrusion detection, vulnerability, risk and compliance technologies.

“In the end, Kaseya was the clear choice for us with its rich security platform. Now that our products are deeply integrated, MSPs and SMBs can protect themselves against all attack vectors and sleep soundly at night.”
