Tyto Athene, an Arlington Capital Partners portfolio company, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire MindPoint Group, which provides end-to-end managed cybersecurity services to federal agencies.
“MindPoint’s customer-first ethos and dedication to delivering top-of-the-line cybersecurity solutions make an excellent fit with our mission-focused culture,” said Dennis Kelly, CEO of Tyto Athene. “The synergies between MindPoint and Tyto enable us to provide a fully integrated cyber solution approach that many of our customers seek to bolster their security postures against evolving cyber threats.”
Tyto provides enterprise-level solutions for modern networking, enterprise IT and cybersecurity services to U.S. defense, national security, intelligence, space and public safety agencies. MindPoint will enhance Tyto’s cyber capabilities and expand its current footprint in the federal civilian market.
“We are delighted to be joining the Tyto family and look forward to our future collaboration,” said Patti Chanthaphone, president of MindPoint. “I am pleased to work with Dennis, partner with Arlington, and assume a senior role with Tyto’s leadership team, to bring resilient and comprehensive cyber system integration capabilities to our mission partners.”
MindPoint has been a cybersecurity advisor to federal agencies and commercial enterprises since 2009. The company is an ISO 9001-certified organization that offers a multifaceted approach to delivering comprehensive cybersecurity services and solutions, the company said.
MindPoint has expertise in cyber defense; governance, risk and compliance; architecture and engineering; and proactive security services. It also delivers managed Security Operations Center services.
“We’ve tracked MindPoint for a number of years and have been impressed by its highly technical workforce, cutting edge capabilities, and deep commitment to the success of its customers’ missions,” said Michael Lustbader, a managing partner at Arlington. “This acquisition strengthens Tyto’s cyber capabilities, adds scale, and supports further expansion into the federal law enforcement segment. We look forward to supporting Dennis, Patti, and the team with this integration as Tyto continues to accelerate its growth and further strengthen its core service offerings.”
The transaction is expected to close at the end of June.
