Evolver and eVigilant Merge to Form Converged Security Solutions
Evolver and eVigilant, two Virginia-based security companies, are merging through the private investments of Hillcrest Holdings Inc. and Akoya Capital LLC. Named Converged Security Solutions (CSS), the new organization will offer a managed services security solution spanning cyber and physical security to address the growing complexities in protecting critical infrastructure. Hillcrest and Akoya, as the first institutional investors for both Evolver and eVigilant, are providing growth capital to CSS to support the go-to-market strategies and the new managed services lines of business.
With the combined strengths of Evolver and eVigilant, CSS will continue to offer the former companies’ cyber and physical security services as well as a remote monitoring delivery model for integrated security. Remote monitoring will yield a more efficient and cost-effective security approach rather than on-premise labor-based offerings, according to the company.
