Evergreen Advisors Capital, a middle-market investment bank, is pleased to announce that Dunbar Cybersecurity (“Dunbar”) has been acquired by ControlScan. Evergreen Advisors Capital acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Dunbar.
Founded in 2012, Dunbar Cybersecurity offers tailored solutions to enable the safety and enhanced protection of client networks, cloud infrastructure, and end users. The acquisitions includes their well-established Security Operations Center (SOC) and powerful SIEM platform, Cyphon. The Cyphon platform streamlines incident management through a single platform. It receives, processes and triages events to provide an all-encompassing solution for analytic workflow — aggregating data, bundling and prioritizing alerts, and empowering analysts to investigate and document incidents. These advanced capabilities add to the best-in-class service ControlScan delivers to their mid-level enterprise clients. 
With this strategic acquisition, ControlScan will strengthen the threat detection and response capabilities of its established solution set, helping the businesses it serves better manage an unprecedented number of incoming cyber threats. The company’s decision to expand its capabilities comes from recent research, including the 2017 Threat Monitoring, Detection and Response Report, which found that a majority of organizations do not have the internal manpower and/or expertise to effectively detect and respond to cybersecurity threats.
Rick Kohr of Evergreen Advisors Capital noted, “The technologies being brought together by this acquisition provide a valuable building block to continue to deliver innovation and excellence in cybersecurity and threat detection.”
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
