Abacus Group has extended its line-up of cybersecurity services and products with the acquisition of two cybersecurity consulting companies: Gotham Security and GoVanguard.
The dual takeover will allow the group to become a “full-bodied MSSP“, the companies said.
The new business will be known as Gotham Security and will continue to operate as an independent subsidiary of Abacus Group.
Chris Grandi, CEO of Abacus Group said: “This acquisition is a natural next step in a long working relationship with Gotham Security, as the businesses have been valued resources to each other and our clients over the last decade. It’s fantastic to now join forces and take further strides in our own expansion from MSP to MSSP.”
Christian Scott, COO, CISO and Partner at Gotham Security, added: “The complementary opportunities created by Abacus Group’s technology solutions and Gotham Security’s cybersecurity services will provide greater value and more options than ever to our shared customer base.”
