Saepio buys Remitech in second cyber deal, eyes more M&A

What's the deal? UK cybersecurity firm SaepioDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → has acquired RemitechDealroom has a profile for this one.

It is Saepio's second acquisition, following its 2025 purchase of penetration-testing specialist RupturaDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →.

What each side brings: Borehamwood-based Remitech specialises in identity, mobile device management, and secure workplace technology — areas Saepio did not cover in-house. High Wycombe-based Saepio offers advisory, managed services, penetration testing, and software resale to lower-enterprise, mid-market, and scaleup clients.

The rationale: "Generally, an acquisition is for two reasons," chief executive Amir Nooriala told CRN. "One reason is you want to buy capability … The other one is you're buying a client book." With Remitech, he said, Saepio gets both, plus a client base with "very little crossover."

Why now? Nooriala bought Saepio in April 2024 and says the business has since doubled in size. Having integrated Ruptura and installed new finance systems and a chief financial officer, he says the company is ready to do more deals. Saepio is adding 21 to 22 clients a month organically and plans to fund further growth from its own profits.

What's the endgame? Saepio wants to become "the preferred home for high-quality security businesses looking to scale," Nooriala said. It plans to integrate Remitech gradually, retaining its people, standards, and customer relationships before folding the brand into Saepio over time.

The signal: The deal fits a broader UK pattern of cyber providers buying specialist capabilities, cited in the government's 2026 sector review on mid-market consolidation. Recent comparable moves include ViatelDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →'s purchase of FullProxyDealroom has a profile for this one.

With price and scale undisclosed, Saepio's wider market impact is hard to gauge — but its appetite for more deals is clear.
