Managed cybersecurity services provider BlueVoyant has acquired cyber defense company Conquest Cyber and raised $140 million in new funding to accompany the acquisition.
Conquest Cyber, established in 2008, offers cybersecurity services to critical infrastructure providers, focusing on defense industries and local, state, and federal governments. The company’s SaaS platform assists in achieving cyber resilience through adaptive risk management and customer service that provides transparency, precision control, and 24/7 protection.
Contest Cyber platform unifies an organization’s entire cyber risk management program, integrating security posture, compliance, detection, and response to deliver insight and control through a risk maturity, visibility, and mitigation lens. The platform also supports regulatory frameworks such as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification.
BlueVoyant intends to integrate Conquest Cyber’s technology into its existing products and services to create the solution to deliver comprehensive internal and external cyber defense mapped to risk maturity.
The acquisition and enhanced capabilities come at a critical time for high-security areas such as the Defense Industrial Base and Government sector. The Department of Defense is set to enforce new cybersecurity rules, CMMC 2.0, while State and Local Governments face a surge in cyber incidents.
