Quorum Cyber Acquires Microsoft Gold Security Firm Ontinue
Quorum Cyber has acquired Ontinue, a Microsoft Gold security services firm. This union combines two companies with complementary strengths in managed detection and response, proactive risk reduction, incident response, professional services, and AI-first security operations.
'AI has changed the speed, scale, and economics of cyber defence,' said Kevin Hanes, CEO at Quorum Cyber. 'The future is not security teams managing more tools; it's experienced defenders directing AI-powered systems that can work continuously and act at machine speed, with humans firmly in control.'
The acquisition extends the organisations' reach across North America, the UK, and the DACH region. It also strengthens support for customers operating across borders and navigating regional regulatory, compliance, and data-governance requirements.
Ontinue's Agentic SOC platform uses AI agents to investigate, decide, and act at machine speed within customer-defined guardrails, while people stay in control of risk and accountability. Quorum Cyber shares this belief and brings global scale, deep threat intelligence, and a proven ability to turn Microsoft innovation into stronger security outcomes.
