CyberMaxx Acquires Avertium to Deepen Security Capabilities for the Mid-Market

September 17, 2026

Nashville, TN – CyberMaxx, a provider of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services, announced yesterday it has acquired Avertium, a Microsoft-focused cybersecurity firm with expertise in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) and offensive security services. The transaction strengthens CyberMaxx’s ability to defend mid-market organizations against a broad range of attack vectors and AI-driven attacks — meeting customers wherever they are on their security journey.

“Acquiring Avertium furthers our commitment to serving the mid-market,” said Brian M. Ahern, CEO, CyberMaxx. “The mid-market deserves a security partner that stands with them on the wall all the way through remediation, and Avertium helps us do that to the best of our ability. We can now walk alongside a customer from their first security assessment through continuous defense, as their single committed partner.”

Avertium’s Microsoft expertise complements CyberMaxx’s tech-enabled strategy and further strengthens the combined company’s ability to deliver comprehensive cybersecurity outcomes to the mid-market. CyberMaxx will continue to offer its MaxxMDR services for layered protection across the vectors attackers target most, paired with defense against the AI-driven risk moving across those vectors.

“CyberMaxx was the right partner for Avertium because of a shared commitment to the mid-market and genuine complementary services,” said Vicente Velez, CEO, Avertium. “Our customers gain a deeper, more durable security partner, and our team gains access to an expanded platform, broader career opportunities, and the resources to deliver even better outcomes. I’m proud of what Avertium has built and excited for what comes next.”
