Ruptura InfoSecurity has been acquired by Saepio Information Security

September 2025 — Cybersecurity consultancy firm Ruptura InfoSecurity Ltd. has been acquired by Saepio Information Security. The transaction combines two high-performing businesses with complementary expertise, strengthening Saepio’s service offering and expanding its client base in the fast-growing cybersecurity market.

Founded in 2018 with offices in the UK and the Middle East, Ruptura provides cutting-edge cybersecurity consulting services to global financial institutions, blue-chip organizations and FTSE 100 companies. A CHECK- and CREST-accredited cybersecurity provider, the firm’s consultants rank among the most skilled in the industry, having placed first in the UK and ninth globally in the 2024 HackTheBox business competition.

Saepio, founded in 2016, is a cybersecurity specialist offering consultancy, managed services and value-added software reselling. The company helps UK mid-market businesses assess their information security risk profiles and mitigate threats with tailored solutions across a full suite of IT and security services. Saepio was acquired in 2024 by a search fund led by co-CEOs Daniel Cardenas Clark and Amir Nooriala, and backed by Ethos Partners and Maven Equity Partners. The company is now one of the UK’s fastest-growing IT and cybersecurity platforms, pursuing further expansion through new services and international growth.

Our role in the transaction

Oaklins S&W, based in the UK, acted as the exclusive sell-side advisor to Ruptura. The transaction further demonstrates the team’s extensive experience in the cybersecurity sector and its capability to advise on strategic transactions across the broader IT consulting landscape.

Parties
“From the outset, the Oaklins S&W team have been an invaluable asset; from leading on valuation negotiations and agreeing heads of terms to navigating us through the various challenges and pitfalls along the way, their obvious expertise shone through at every stage of the process. I chose to work with Oaklins S&W due to their significant experience within cybersecurity and this proved to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. Being from a technical and security background, this was a new world to me and there were numerous times when I was unsure of a certain point, and the advice we received was always clear, timely and pragmatic.”
