Phoenix47 has bought Guardian Technologies, a privately held company that specialises in a range of security services. The acquisition will complement Phoenix47’s ever-growing security consulting practice.
Providing security consultancy, Guardian Technologies delivers a range of security services which apparently are designed to strengthen business applications and protect IT infrastructure.
The buy is seen as part of Phoenix47’s cunning plan to invest in and create next-generation cybersecurity services to help protect clients’ “end to end” business. That’s from top to bottom, it seems.
Phoenix47 Director Ed Crane said: “The acquisition of Guardian further enhances our rapidly growing organisation and complements our highly skilled existing security practice. Guardian’s specialists bring extensive technical security skills, making them a strong strategic fit. We are very excited to welcome Guardian Technologies into Phoenix47.”
Guardian Technologies Managing Director Rupert Beeby said: “Today’s announcement is an exciting new chapter for Guardian Technologies and our team. Phoenix47’s people-focused culture and innovation mindset are core values that both companies share, and our unique capabilities complement each other perfectly. We are thrilled to be joining Phoenix47 and look forward to being part of their continued growth.”
