By Joy Dumasia

Sysnet Global Solutions, a leading provider of cyber security and compliance solutions, announced that it had acquired SecureTrust, a division of Trustwave, to further expand its cyber security solutions and accelerate its market expansion. SecureTrust, a leading Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance provider, provides innovation and processes for achieving and maintaining compliance and security.

The addition of SecureTrust is a natural fit that broadens Sysnet’s customer base, security offering, and geographic coverage augmented by proprietary security and compliance platforms. The combined organization will be the world’s largest Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) company and one of the largest compliance and security solutions providers, with many of the world’s top acquirers and payment service providers as clients and over five million businesses using Sysnet’s platforms.

SecureTrust clients moving under Sysnet will benefit significantly from the new solution set, delivery team, and geographic coverage that will be unmatched in the market. They will access an integrated security and compliance platform with enhanced functionality and faster access to newly developed solutions. Sysnet’s dedication to providing premium solutions and support will give its new clients confidence that their changing needs will be met and exceeded into the future. While Trustwave’s legacy is rooted in PCI compliance, today, the company’s core offering is centred around Managed Security Services (MSS), Managed Detection and Response (MDR), and Consulting and Professional Services (CPS).

Bob McCullen, Chief Executive Officer of Sysnet, said: “We are very excited to have the SecureTrust team join Sysnet Global Solutions. The Sysnet brand has long been synonymous with trusted solutions in the managed security and compliance market. By integrating talent and technology from pioneering brands, such as SecureTrust, into our portfolio, we can deliver the innovation that our clients need to stay ahead of the curve along with the peace of mind that comes with working with a well-established authority in the space, no matter their size or requirements.”
