Conscia acquires Swedish Splunk-specialist Siemify

Conscia, a leading provider of mission-critical IT infrastructure in networks, cybersecurity, and cloud, intends to acquire the Swedish Splunk-specialist Siemify Software. Increasing complexity, regulatory requirements, and cyber threats drive a strong demand for Splunk. Cisco’s acquisition of Splunk also means an increased interest in the platform among Cisco customers. With the acquisition of Siemify, Cisco expert Conscia ensures the ability to offer the highest expertise and partner level also on Splunk. Siemify has five employees with a total of 28 Splunk certifications and a significant network with Splunk competencies. Completion of the transaction is due during the second quarter of 2024, subject to approval from relevant authorities.

Splunk is the market leader in SIEM (Security Information and Event Management), and in using analysis of machine data to increase organizations’ resilience against cyberattacks and operational disruptions. A strong demand is driven by increased cyber threats, growing complexity, and higher regulatory requirements from, for example, GDPR, NIS2, and DORA. The Cisco acquisition of Splunk is expected to close by the end of the third quarter, 2024. By combining Cisco’s data and solutions with Splunk’s analytical capabilities, they will address the growing needs within digital transformation, cybersecurity and data driven business development. Conscia Sweden also recently entered a strategic partnership with Splunk.

Siemify was founded in 2017 with a focus on Splunk and is today a complete provider of the platform. The company has about fifty customers in finance, fintech, and the public sector but also in manufacturing and retail.

Lars Kyhlstedt, GM of Conscia Sweden says, “Today’s operations must constantly utilize data from a plethora of sources more efficiently to meet growing demands for optimization, traceability, reliability, and security. No solution manages this like Splunk, and Siemify’s consultants are experts at letting the customer make the most of the platform. With Siemify, Conscia will be able to continue to offer leading knowledge about visibility, prediction, and automation in the systems and help customers in several Conscia countries meet the challenges of tomorrow.”

Daniel Backman, CEO and co-founder of Siemify adds, “For Siemify, this is a golden opportunity to join a leading international Cisco partner and, as a much larger actor, better reach and help a large number of customers, both in private and public sectors. It will also help us attract and train more expert consultants.”

Erik Bertman, CEO of Conscia says, “We see a strong match between Siemify and Conscia in a shared high customer focus and deep technical expertise. The demand for leading expertise on each platform is already strong and as they are integrated, the demand for our unique joint expertise will grow further.”
