Cyber Advisors Acquires IT Security and Compliance Firm BAI Security

Minneapolis-based technology firm is positioned to become the leading security partner in the U.S.

 

Twin Cities MN. 

Cyber Advisors, a leading provider of cybersecurity and technology solutions, is pleased to announce its recent acquisition of BAI Security, a leading entity in offensive cybersecurity testing, as well as governance, risk, and compliance. This strategic move solidifies Cyber Advisors' commitment to enhance its cybersecurity capabilities and expand its reach in the ever-evolving landscape of digital security, risk, and compliance.

"The synergies between our two companies are compelling, as is the timing of this new chapter. In an era when clients are increasingly drawn to integrated solutions, we now graduate from a trusted security assessment provider to a comprehensive security partner, able to wholly support our clients’ ever-expanding security challenges and compliance requirements" stated Michael Bruck, Founder and President/CEO of BAI Security.

Headquartered in Lincolnshire, Illinois, BAI Security, Inc. is a nationally recognized IT security assessment firm specializing in comprehensive and yet affordable security solutions for highly regulated industries, such as bank and finance, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, and more. Their services include IT security assessments, compliance audits, red teams, network vulnerability assessments, tabletop exercises, and ransomware simulations.

Dr. Michele Bruck, Chief Strategy Officer of BAI Security, remarked, "In joining Cyber Advisors, we fuse the most forward-thinking talent in the industry under a highly specialized security solutions umbrella, bucking the trend of generalist providers who outsource critical security projects at the expense of the rigor and depth clients deserve. Further, in folding together our wonderfully aligned workplace cultures, we remain grounded in the superior quality and integrity that earned us the trust of clients for 17 years and will continue to serve their security priorities for decades to come."

The addition of BAI Security marks a pivotal moment for Cyber Advisors, solidifying its role as a trusted partner for organizations in need of robust cybersecurity solutions. By uniting the strengths and knowledge of both firms, this partnership brings a wider array of cybersecurity services and assistance to clients, setting a new standard in the industry.

"This acquisition further strengthens our portfolio by adding depth to our risk management practice" said Shane Vinup, CEO at Cyber Advisors. "Their extensive knowledge in conducting compliance audits and security assessments perfectly aligns with our current offerings, enabling us to deliver even more holistic solutions to our clients. Together, we are dedicated to providing top-tier cybersecurity services to assist organizations in navigating the intricate and constantly evolving cybersecurity landscape."

Cyber Advisors and BAI Security are committed to providing a smooth experience for clients and partners alike. The combination of their expertise will enable clients to remain proactive against emerging threats, strengthen their cybersecurity defenses, and uphold the utmost standards of data protection and compliance.

As cyber threats continue to evolve in sophistication and scale, Cyber Advisors remains committed to delivering innovative and effective solutions that safeguard organizations' critical assets. This strategic acquisition reinforces Cyber Advisors' position as a leader in the cybersecurity industry and underscores its dedication to helping clients navigate the digital age securely.
