TAC InfoSec to Acquire Israel-Based B2C Cybersecurity Firm Safehouse Technologies
TAC
InfoSec Limited, a global cybersecurity company to acquire 100% of Israel-based Safehouse Technologies
Ltd., marking TAC Security’s strategic entry into the business-to-consumer (B2C) cybersecurity segment.
TAC Security will acquire 100% of Safehouse’s issued share capital on a fully
diluted basis and, upon completion, Safehouse will become a wholly owned
subsidiary of TAC InfoSec Limited.
Safehouse’s
flagship consumer app, “Safehouse,”
already demonstrates the company’s B2C cybersecurity potential, with 10 lakhs+
downloads, a 4.2-star rating on Google Play. The app is positioned as an
all-in-one privacy and digital protection platform, offering unlimited VPN
access, encrypted browsing, global servers across markets including the USA,
UK, Singapore, Germany, India and Brazil, threat blocking, link protection,
phishing alerts and breach-detection features. Its Google Play listing also
highlights user-focused privacy practices such as no data shared with third
parties, data encryption in transit, and the ability for users to request data
deletion — strengthening the case for TAC Security’s entry into consumer
cybersecurity through a product that already has market traction and a
recognized user base.
The
transaction represents a significant expansion of TAC Security’s cybersecurity
platform from enterprise, government, and technology customers into the
fast-growing consumer digital protection market. Upon completion, Safehouse
Technologies Ltd. will become a wholly owned subsidiary of TAC InfoSec Limited,
or its business, assets, and intellectual property may be transferred as part
of the transaction structure, subject to due diligence, regulatory
requirements, and definitive agreements.
Safehouse
Technologies operates in the digital security and consumer cybersecurity space.
The proposed acquisition is aligned with TAC Security’s strategy to build a
consumer-facing cybersecurity platform through TAC Safehouse
Technologies, a proposed new entity that will house Safehouse-related
consumer operations, product development, go-to-market execution, and future
B2C cybersecurity offerings.
The
move comes at a time when cybercrime has become one of the largest economic
threats globally. The FBI’s 2024 Internet Crime Report recorded 859,532 complaints and reported
losses exceeding $16 billion,
a 33% increase from
the prior year. Cybersecurity Ventures has estimated global cybercrime costs
at $10.5 trillion annually in 2025,
making cybercrime comparable in scale to one of the world’s largest economies.
In India, cyber fraud has also scaled sharply, with reports citing
approximately 65.9 lakh complaints and INR 55,659 crore in losses over five years based on Ministry of
Home Affairs data.
For
TAC Security, the acquisition opens a new growth category. Enterprise
cybersecurity has historically been the company’s core market, but the consumer
side of cybersecurity is now becoming equally critical as individuals face
phishing, identity theft, financial fraud, account takeover, mobile threats,
privacy risks, and AI-enabled scams. Safehouse gives TAC a foundation to create
a trusted B2C cybersecurity brand backed by TAC’s global security experience,
technical depth, and listed-company governance.
As
part of the proposed transaction, TAC will acquire Safehouse’s intellectual
property, including source code, product designs, trademarks, trade secrets,
know-how, and other IP developed in connection with Safehouse’s business.
Trishneet
Arora, Founder & CEO, TAC Security, said, “TAC Security has built its
global cybersecurity presence by serving enterprises, governments, and
technology companies. With Safehouse, we are taking a strategic step into
consumer cybersecurity. Cyber threats are no longer limited to enterprises;
individuals, families, and consumers also need simple, trusted, and scalable
protection. This acquisition gives us the foundation to build a strong B2C
cybersecurity business from India for global markets.”
Liad
Herman, Co-founder, Safehouse Technologies, said, “Safehouse was built with
the belief that digital security should be simple, accessible, and trusted by
everyday users. Joining hands with TAC Security gives us the scale,
cybersecurity expertise, and global platform required to take this vision to
the next level. Together, we aim to build consumer cybersecurity products that
can protect millions of users in India and across global markets.”
Aditya
Narang, Co-founder, Safehouse Technologies, said, “India is one of the
world’s fastest-growing digital economies, and with that growth comes a rising
need for trusted consumer cybersecurity. Safehouse has already built strong
learnings in India through its consumer digital security journey, and
partnering with TAC Security gives us the ability to scale that opportunity
with credibility, technology depth, and execution strength. We believe TAC
Safehouse can become a powerful platform to make digital protection accessible
to millions of Indian users and eventually to consumers globally.”
