UK mid-market private equity investment firm Limerston Capital, announces the acquisition of CyberCrowd, a UK-based cyber security services specialist. This transaction marks the start of a new platform to create a new platform business alongside assets from an earlier cyber security acquisition that aims to create one of the UK’s leading providers of cyber security and digital forensics services, for both public and private sector clients.
This strategic acquisition brings together two complementary businesses, supported by highly-skilled teams, to offer broader and more sophisticated services to clients across the UK. The new Group offers not only market-leading digital forensic and cell site capabilities, e-Discovery solutions and a proprietary forensic case management software, but also a 24/7 UK-based SOC offering, highly-accredited incident response solutions, and scaled cyber consultancy and penetration testing services.
