With the financial services sector increasingly being subjected to targeted and sophisticated social engineering attacks, the award comes as attention is focused on cybersecurity within private equity firms.

The firm’s deep technical expertise is reinforced by a leadership team with over 100 years of collective experience in the alternative investment industry. Meanwhile, its CISSP-certified information security professionals continuously set strategies to secure its systems and mitigate risks.
Jonathan Bohrer, President at Abacus Group, commented: “We are extremely proud to have been recognized by our peers as Best Cyber Security Provider. Cybersecurity has become an ingrained part of our lives, both in the office and at home. With employees alternating between remote and office, firms must be laser-focused on a safe network and secure electronic assets. Abacus Group will continue to provide industry-leading IT services to promote cybersecurity compliance and awareness at all levels.”
