Bregal Milestone has today announced the launch of CyberSentriq, an integrated cybersecurity and data protection platform purpose-built for managed service providers and the customers they service.
CyberSentriq is formed through the acquisition of TitanHQ and its merger with Redstor, a Bregal Milestone portfolio company. The new unified platform is targeting $100m in annual recurring revenue (ARR) by 2028, through organic and inorganic growth strategies.
Redstor and TitanHQ are said to already offer cybersecurity and data protection solutions to over 3,000 MSPs, protecting more than 150,000 small- and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) worldwide. CyberSentriq is offering AI-driven threat detection, cloud-based backup and recovery, advanced email and web security, security awareness training, and secure email archiving and encryption.
James Griffin, CEO of CyberSentriq, said: “We’re setting a new standard for MSP-first cybersecurity. MSPs safeguarding the critical SMB economy are underserved and have been let down by vendors out of touch with their day-to-day needs. CyberSentriq changes that. By uniting two key companies known for technology and service excellence, we’re giving MSPs exactly what they need - comprehensive protection without compromising quality, partnership, or performance.”
Ronan Kavanagh, CRO at CyberSentriq, added: “We are combining two hugely successful companies, whose success is driven by a fundamental understanding of the MSP, their needs, and how we create value for them. We’re here to eradicate operational drag and provide MSPs with proactive cybersecurity, data protection, and operational resilience, providing a value enablement platform allowing them to better serve their customers.”
CyberSentriq is backed by a lender syndicate led by HSBC Innovation Banking and JP Morgan.
