Security outfit Saepio has been snapped up by industry heavyweights Amir Nooriala and Daniel Cardenas-Clark. The duo, known for their tech prowess, have joined forces as co-CEOs following a meticulous investor search. They are set to co-pilot the company’s ascent in Europe.
The founders, Rob Pooley and Andy Pitt maintain a strong presence as major stakeholders and board members. Nooriala, with a history of leadership roles at Callsign and Oaknorth Bank, and Cardenas-Clark, who witnessed his previous venture Credit Kudos merge with tech giant Apple, bring a wealth of experience.
Nooriala expressed admiration for Saepio’s foundation and envisions a harmonious blend of their collective expertise to propel the company to global heights, while preserving its exceptional client support.
Established in 2016 by ex-Softcat stalwarts Pooley and Pitt, Saepio has flourished, amassing a team of over 60 and catering to upwards of 700 clients throughout the UK.
With the new leadership, Saepio’s management team said it is geared to fast-track its mission to dominate the European cybersecurity landscape from its High Wycombe headquarters.
Marking a new chapter in Saepio’s story, Pooley reflects on the company’s journey from aspiring to be the UK’s premier cybersecurity partner to now setting sights on broader horizons powered by this significant investment.
Saepio has also rolled out M-CISO, a cutting-edge managed cybersecurity service. Tailored to meet client needs, M-CISO offers access to elite security professionals and bespoke security dashboards for ongoing cyber risk management, aligning with the World Economic Forum’s findings on the cyber inequality gap.
