MorganFranklin Cybersecurity Practice Becomes MorganFranklin Cyber

MorganFranklin Consulting’s cybersecurity practice announced that it has completed a private equity backed management buyout from the broader MorganFranklin Consulting organization to become a standalone professional services firm. The cybersecurity practice will continue to be led and operated by its founding leadership team and partners, Pete Schile, Keith Hollender and Jonah Dimeo. With majority ownership and backing now from private equity firm M|C Partners, MorganFranklin Cyber is poised for accelerated growth and further innovation.

The divestiture marks a pivotal moment for MorganFranklin Cyber, which has built a strong reputation for helping enterprises and organizations across industries navigate complex challenges. The divestiture will create one of the largest standalone cybersecurity professional services firms globally. Headquartered in Charlotte, N.C, with a second core location in New Jersey and offices around the globe, the firm will continue to deliver best-in-class services across its core pillars of expertise and cybersecurity adjacent work: Cyber Fusion Center (CFC/SOC) and Incident Response (IR), Identity and Access Management (IAM), Cyber Strategy and Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC), Architecture, Engineering and Infrastructure, and Cyber and Operational Resilience.

“M|C Partners’ investment underscores its confidence in our mission, market opportunity and services expertise,” said Keith Hollender, CEO and Founding Partner of MorganFranklin Cyber. “As a large, independent entity, we are uniquely positioned to expand our offerings, premier talent roster, and solution innovation to provide even greater value for our clients.”
