Interactive has acquired Slipstream Cyber Security. Interactive’s Executive Chairman, Brendan Fleiter, says the acquisition comes at a critical point for Australian enterprises as the country reaches a cyber maturity impasse.
“Australian organisations are facing into daily, even hourly, threats to their operations, as well as their peoples’ and customers’ livelihoods. The path to staying secure isn’t as easy as putting a padlock on the front door anymore.”
“For many enterprises the road to cyber resilience is a maze of vendors, skills shortages and ongoing risks and regulation. Our mission is to clear the path for these organisations so they can operate securely, confidently and faster”, continued Fleiter.
“We’re proud of our longstanding industry partnerships that make our service as strong as it is today. We’ve been partners with Slipstream Cyber Security since 2019 and we’re excited to take this next step with them. The team at Slipstream Cyber Security is a superb addition to ours, not only for their expertise but importantly for their customer and people centred approach to cyber security.” said Fleiter.
CEO and co-founder of Slipstream Cyber Security, Brian Smith, said, “We’re excited to join the Interactive team. Its reputation as a technology solutions provider that people can trust is critically important to us. Not only does combining our companies create a formidable, nation-wide security capability, but it also provides our people with a unique opportunity to grow their careers across the technology sector”.
Brian Smith will play a leading role at Interactive, and his entire team will join Interactive to play a pivotal role in streamlining cyber security for Australian organisations.
