The Private Equity Problem in Cybersecurity

This one's going to ruffle some feathers. Over the past eight years, something has fundamentally changed in the cybersecurity industry. Prices are climbing faster than most UK and European budgets can absorb. Vendor renewals that used to be predictable are now eye-watering. Consultancy rates have shot up. And it's not just about inflation or rising costs.

Why is cybersecurity getting so expensive?

Cybersecurity is pricing itself out of reach. Over the past eight years, private equity and VC acquisitions have driven massive price increases across security consulting, vendor products, pentesting and compliance services. SMBs are struggling with vendor renewals climbing up to 40% while security budgets can't keep pace. From endpoint security to SIEM solutions, baseline cybersecurity is becoming unaffordable for the organisations that need it most.
