Market trends and drivers

Enterprises face exploding alert volumes, increasingly sophisticated attack vectors, chronic SOC talent shortages, and heightened regulatory scrutiny – driving a fundamental shift from legacy managed services to software-centric security operations platforms. ReliaQuest’s AI-powered and technology-agnostic approach to this problem, positions GreyMatter as the ideal platform to capture this services-to-software transition. The broader TAM for managed security services is estimated to be $164bn, within which ReliaQuest’s core addressable market for SecOps software is growing at a 28% CAGR.

Investment potential

EQT Growth will partner with ReliaQuest to accelerate international expansion - especially in Europe and APAC - by leveraging EQT’s local partner networks, industrial advisors and true global reach. In addition, EQT Growth is supporting ReliaQuest with cross-sell into EQT’s extensive portfolio and with potential bolt-on acquisitions to drive product expansion.
