Cybersecurity Roll up

Happy to chat and see if there's alignment to work together: https://withsenzu.com/join-buyer-network/

Hi Almeckdad, Cybersecurity is incredibly vast, covering areas like network security, cloud security, data protection, and incident response. Pinpointing a niche—such as MSSP, endpoint protection, or identity management—will help you target acquisition opportunities and scale more effectively. Partnering with a cybersecurity expert, like a CISSP, is critical. Cybersecurity is complex and requires deep knowledge of regulations and technology. Having someone skilled in the field will help with risk assessment and informed decision-making. For deal flow, focus on building relationships directly with founders and attending industry events like RSA, Black Hat, and DEF CON. Many opportunities are off-market, so personal connections will be key, though I currently don't have specific broker contacts to recommend. Valuations in 2024 for cybersecurity firms generally range from 6x-10x EBITDA, with SaaS-based or recurring revenue models commanding higher multiples. Firms with scalable tech or proprietary solutions will fetch premium valuations, while more traditional security businesses may see lower multiples, especially if growth is slower. Good luck!
