Computer Security Solutions, Inc. (“CompSec” or the “Company”) has been acquired by DC Capital Partners, LLC (“DC Capital”), a private investment firm headquartered in Washington, D.C.
“I am very pleased that CompSec will be part of DC Capital’s portfolio,” said CompSec’s Founder, Karen Azoff. “Their knowledge of the sector and our business as well as their management style and leadership convinced me that this would be the best path forward for CompSec.”
Azoff, who is stepping down as Chief Executive Officer, remains involved in strategic planning and business development. She will be replaced by Chad Wagner, who was promoted to the role.
“DC Capital brings a depth of experience and strategic vision to our efforts,” said Chad Wagner. “Our new relationship with DC Capital and the Gladiator companies will allow us to expand our capabilities and benefit both our customers and our employees.”
CompSec, a leading Information Technology solutions provider to the United States Government Intelligence Community, was founded in 1997 and is headquartered in McLean, Va. It works closely with its customers to evaluate, design, test, certify, select, and integrate software and hardware solutions that meet the unique mission parameters within the Intelligence Community.
“This is a significant strategic enhancement for our portfolio company, Gladiator HoldCo, LLC (“Gladiator”),” said Thomas J. Campbell, Founder & President of DC Capital. “The capabilities and insight that CompSec provides to its customers in the Intelligence Community are highly differentiated. When combined with our other Gladiator companies, namely, KS International, LLC, Catapult Technology Ltd., the Strategic Intelligence Group, LLC, and Kickstand, LLC, CompSec significantly enhances our ability to assist our customers in any aspect of their mission worldwide. It is this full lifecycle mission capability — which ranges from intelligence analysis and operational support to training, IT infrastructure management, software development, design, engineering and development, base operations support, and security — that we will continue to build upon.”
