Entara brings to the table specialised incident response capabilities that Abacus Group plans to extend to its global clientele. This will further reinforce Abacus's layered defense strategy and bolster its 24/7 cyber recovery support services. Additionally, Entara introduces a mature, AI-driven implementation of the ServiceNow platform, aimed at improving the overall client service experience and operational outcomes.
The strategic acquisition enables the integration of Entara's operations and service capabilities into Abacus Group's existing portfolio, including the abacusFlex platform. This platform is a market-leading solution in managed IT and cybersecurity services. The combination will allow Entara’s existing clients to benefit from seamless, scalable IT and cybersecurity solutions that are designed to meet the regulatory standards of financial managers and multinational corporations alike.
Abacus Group President Jonathan Bohrer stated, “I am delighted to welcome Entara and its clients to Abacus Group. Entara's reputation and long-standing client relationships align perfectly with our core values as we further establish Abacus Group as the premier provider of managed services and cybersecurity globally.”
He further added that the merger represents a shared commitment to leadership, innovation, operational excellence, and delivering exceptional client experiences in niche vertical markets. “Together, our combined capabilities and footprint will unlock immense opportunities for clients, employees, and shareholders. We look forward to working with the Entara team to ensure a seamless integration,” Bohrer said.
The acquisition is expected to deliver measurable benefits to organizations of various sizes, particularly those operating in regulated environments that require robust and compliant IT and cybersecurity frameworks. Both companies are positioned to offer enhanced service delivery at scale through a global platform backed by around-the-clock security infrastructure.
