Strata Alliance announced a strategic partnership with NexAI Cyber, an AI-enabled cyber resilience and compliance services firm led by Russell Safirstein. The partnership combines growth capital with operational support to accelerate NexAI Cyber’s expansion across incident readiness, managed governance, risk and compliance (GRC), and AI governance offerings.

Organizations are facing accelerating cyber threats, rising regulatory complexity and rapid adoption of AI often while remaining “tool-rich but resource-constrained.” NexAI Cyber was built to help organizations translate security and compliance requirements into repeatable operating programs that drive measurable outcomes.

“Through the Strata Alliance, we partner with operators not just companies,” said Joe Campolo, managing partner and leader, Strata Alliance. “NexAI Cyber is building what the market needs at the intersection of cybersecurity, compliance and AI governance. We’re excited to support this team with both capital and operational leverage as they scale.”

Russell Safirstein, president and CEO, NexAI Cyber, added, “With AI changing both the threat landscape and the expectations for speed, organizations need practical resilience not just more tools. Strata is the right partner because they combine committed growth support with an operational platform that helps us scale efficiently without compromising delivery quality.”

As part of the partnership, NexAI Cyber will expand service delivery capacity and accelerate go-to-market initiatives, with a focus on:

• Cyber resilience, including programs to help companies proactively before and improve their maturity after a cyber incident.
• Managed GRC, helping organizations operationalize governance and compliance requirements.
• AI governance, supporting responsible adoption and risk management as AI use scales.

The partnership is also intended to strengthen access to modern cyber resilience and governance capabilities for mid-market and regulated organizations seeking measurable improvements in security outcomes.
