CipherTechs

CipherTechs is a global cybersecurity services provider that specializes in managed security, digital forensics, and risk compliance. Founded in 2001 and headquartered in New York, the company offers a comprehensive suite of offensive and defensive security solutions, including Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and penetration testing. In February 2023, CipherTechs was acquired by CyberMaxx, a portfolio company of Periscope Equity, to integrate its forensic and offensive capabilities into a broader tech-enabled security platform. While the company operates primarily in the information technology sector, it maintains a significant presence in the healthcare industry by providing specialized cybersecurity and compliance services to hospitals and pharmaceutical firms. CipherTechs is recognized for its 'hacker mindset' approach to defense, helping organizations protect sensitive data and maintain regulatory standards such as GDPR and HIPAA.
