SAEPIO ENHANCES CYBER SECURITY EXPERTISE
Saepio Acquires Ruptura.
Saepio, a leading provider of cyber security services and solutions, today announces the acquisition of offensive security specialist Ruptura. The deal will enable Saepio to better serve its clients in testing resilience against cyber threats by bringing Ruptura’s penetration testing — known as pen testing — into its suite of services.
Offensive Security Specialists.
The acquisition is a logical next step for Saepio after a successful partnership in which Ruptura conducted pen tests for its clients to ensure that Saepio’s cyber security recommendations are resilient and robust. Tom Heenan, Ruptura’s Founder and Managing Director, will continue to oversee the high quality of penetration testing and will become Saepio’s Director of Offensive Security.
Amir Nooriala, co-CEO of Saepio, says, “The timing of this acquisition is excellent. We will expand the penetration testing business, and offer additional offensive security services to match the needs of our clients and fulfil our ambition of becoming the largest independent cyber security provider in the UK and Europe. Our clients face an evolving set of cyber challenges, and we are on a mission to help them solve as many as possible. Additionally, Saepio is committed to maintaining the high quality of work that Ruptura’s clients have come to expect.”
Globally Recognised Talent.
Ruptura’s penetration testing skills have been recognised in global industry competitions, with its team being ranked 1st in the UK in the Hack the Box Capture the Flag event for 2023 and 2024, and 14th and 9th in the world, respectively.
Saepio’s acquisition brings Ruptura’s Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus solutions and certification body status — part of the UK government’s certification scheme — to its clients. “The expertise that Ruptura has in these frameworks fits well with Saepio’s cyber resilience consulting practice and enables us to offer a fully-integrated compliance and governance solution,” says Nooriala.
This adds to the solutions that Saepio offers, including its recently-launched Managed GRC (governance, risk and compliance) service. M-GRC automates monitoring, offers real-time compliance status, reduces audit prep time and brings risk policy and control management into a single dashboard. “Too often organisations are relying on a tangled mess of spreadsheets and manual tracking to keep up with regulatory and security frameworks. Saepio’s M-GRC service removes the spreadsheet fatigue and lets organisations focus on what they do best,” says Nooriala.
