Integrity360 has acquired Grove Group, a cyber security and cloud services company headquartered in Cape Town, South Africa. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The acquisition provides Integrity360 with some 600 additional customers across 51 countries, a deep partnership with leading network detection and response vendor Darktrace, and a fifth global security operations centre location.

The new purchase is to bring Integrity360’s annual revenues to approximately €130 million and expands group resources to more than 500 employees.

Ian Brown, executive chairman at Integrity360 (pictured) said: “The enhanced group significantly expands our existing activities and cyber services across other continents including Africa and the Caribbean in addition to bolstering our existing markets throughout the UK and continental Europe. The addition of another Integrity360 regional hub in Cape Town will further enable us to serve the local needs of customers, and the SOC will add to and expand our already considerable 24/7 SOC operations. Both companies share a passion for customer service and innovation and we look forward to offering the group’s enhanced range of services to our collective customers and partners over the coming weeks and months.”

Pip Witheridge, founder and chairman of Grove added: “Thanks to the support of our customers, partners and employees Grove has grown and flourished during that time and I am confident will continue to do so being part of the Integrity360 group.”

James Vinton, CEO of Grove commented: “The connection between Grove and Integrity360 has developed over an extended period of time, and we could not be more delighted to be joining the group and working closely with Ian and the Integrity360 team over the coming years. I am excited about the future for us as an organisation, for our people and in particular for what the enhanced group can provide our customers and partners moving forward.”
