Chris Parker MBE, Cyberplus Executive Director & Co-founder, commented “Infosec Partners’ acquisition of Cyberplus provides a major growth opportunity for both businesses through the new extended service offering to clients. As the organisations begin their transition to provide a unified and unique range of executive services, we will be best positioned to support them on that journey”. Parker has taken the decision to step down from his position and has taken a new exciting role at Fortinet as Major Accounts Director.

Over the last 2 years Cyberplus has been very active in the maritime and yachting sector, having developed the Cyberyacht™ certification in accordance with The International Maritime Organisation’s (IMO) cyber risk management requirements. Infosec Partners are extremely pleased to be continuing the development of the Cyberyacht™ brand and service.

The key principle upon which Infosec Partners was founded is as apparent today as when it was first established; namely to enable organisations to meet tailored Governance, Risk Management and Compliance programmes through a trusted network of Information Security experts and partners.
