Cynet sells an all-in-one security platform for small and mid-sized enterprises, bundling endpoint, network, email, identity, and SaaS protection with a 24x7 managed detection team, priced per endpoint. The striking move is corporate and recent. After a decade of founder-led growth on $78 million in total funding, the company handed the CEO seat to ConnectWise’s former chief in February 2025 and rebuilt itself around MSPs, who drove nearly two-thirds of deals within a year and produced what the company calls its best quarter ever. Cynet has disclosed no round since 2021 in the cited record, and it is betting that partner distribution will hold off larger endpoint and MDR rivals better than product breadth would. The traction numbers, though, remain almost entirely the company’s own.
