RESOURCIVE ACQUIRES PROTEUS ADVISORS
ADRIAN TILSTON JOINS AS CYBER PRACTICE LEAD
New York, NY, September 19, 2022 – Resourcive, the leading strategic IT sourcing consultancy, announces the acquisition of Proteus Advisors, LLC. a cybersecurity consultancy.
Proteus Advisors has helped companies go to market and win by enabling their business with high quality cybersecurity services, provided by transitioning veterans trained and mentored though their development programs. Their areas of expertise include holistic security reviews, advisory services, and professional services. Proteus Advisors invests in veterans, providing training to transitioning service members and sourcing private sector opportunities.
As part of the investment, Proteus Advisor's founder Adrian Tilston will join Resourcive and lead their Cybersecurity Practice.
“Resourcive has been hearing from our clients, partners and the market as a whole the need for a cyber practice that acts as a true partner in execution of a cyber roadmap. A vital part of any cyber strategy is the sourcing of vendors who can deliver on risk adjusted desired business outcomes,” said Resourcive President Kyle Hall. “The noise in the cybersecurity vendor ecosystem makes having an agnostic cybersecurity partner crucial in navigating the space and making decisions at pace. Our focus is on partnering with our clients to reduce risk over time while providing confidence in cybersecurity spend and budgeting.”
"I am very excited about the new opportunities offered by bringing Proteus Advisors, LLC into the Resourcive family of services,” said Tilston. “As a former Green Beret, the cultural fit between Resourcive and Proteus Advisors will allow our clients to continue to experience the unique benefits of working with Special Operators when tackling some of their toughest challenges.”
A graduate from the US Military Academy at West Point, Adrian served in the US Army from 2008 to 2019 in the Infantry then Special Forces as a Green Beret. Following his active-duty time, Adrian worked to develop security solutions as a government contractor before founding Proteus Advisors.
“Adrian will lead our Cyber Practice which will be uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between Finance, IT and Procurement departments when it comes to assessing and executing on cybersecurity initiatives,” said Hall. “As a fellow former Green Beret, Adrian will bring the ‘By, With and Through’ mentality to ensuring security vendors are utilized by our clients to drive maximum value from those services.”
Hall continued, “Our clients are trying to answer a few basic questions when it comes to their cyber programs: They want to know if they are responding appropriately to the risks at hand, and that their security budget is invested in a way that provides maximum ROI. Resourcive can help answer those questions and also manage cyber program execution.”
