Accenture has agreed to acquire CyberCX, a cybersecurity services provider in Australia, New Zealand, and internationally.

Accenture (NYSE: ACN) has agreed to acquire CyberCX, a leading cybersecurity services provider, to bolster its cybersecurity offerings in the Asia Pacific region. CyberCX, founded in Melbourne, Australia in 2019, has approximately 1,400 skilled professionals and operates across Australia, New Zealand, and internationally [1]. The acquisition, which will be Accenture's largest cybersecurity deal to date, aims to enhance the company's ability to build business resilience and protect critical infrastructure [1].CyberCX offers a range of cybersecurity services, including consulting, transformation, and managed security services, as well as advanced capabilities in offensive security and cyber physical security. The company's AI-powered platforms deliver services such as detection and response, sovereign secure cloud, and cyber intelligence [1]. CyberCX's extensive expertise is underscored by over 2,600 certifications and strong partnerships with major cybersecurity players like Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, and CrowdStrike [1].
The acquisition is timely, given Accenture's recent report which found that 97% of Australian organizations are not adequately prepared for an AI-driven future [1]. By combining Accenture's agentic AI capabilities with CyberCX's market leadership, the companies aim to transform cybersecurity into a strategic advantage for clients across Asia Pacific [1].
The acquisition of CyberCX follows a series of strategic moves by Accenture to expand its cybersecurity capabilities. Since 2015, Accenture has completed 20 security acquisitions, including most recently Morphus, MNEMO Mexico, and Innotec Security [1]. The terms of the CyberCX acquisition were not disclosed, and completion is subject to regulatory approvals [1].
