Netsurion, founded in 2009, is based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The company has 241 employees listed on LinkedIn. Netsurion’s areas of expertise include managed detection and response, MDR, co-managed SIEM, threat hunting, compliance support, advanced threat protection, and XDR.
Strategic Goals
Lumifi’s proprietary SHIELDVision platform, built on the Gartner Visibility Triad, also known as the SOC Visibility Triad supports its team of experts from the U.S. Military, DoD, and Fortune 500 companies.
“For years, Lumifi has developed proprietary technology unique to the MDR use case, and we can’t wait to bring that to our newest clients,” said David Norlin, CTO of Lumifi.
The company’s security operations center is staffed by U.S.-based analysts, ex-military, and former DoD security experts.
Prior Acquisitions
This marks Lumifi’s third acquisition since 2022 and its second in the past twelve months. Previously, Lumifi acquired Castra in October of last year, successfully integrating its clients into Lumifi’s technology.
With the acquisition of Netsurion, Lumifi gains additional engineers, customer success and sales associates, technical account managers, and 400 new clients. This acquisition also supports Lumifi’s strategic goal to become a leader in the MDR space, according to the company.
