Adding leading IT security expertise
Acquisition of the consultancy operation in Nexus Technology, an information and IT security company, took place in Q2 and included 43 employees in Sweden. Cybercom paid SEK 30 million for the operation; no additional purchase price was paid in 2008. Nexus Consulting was consolidated on 1 April 2008. Integration costs in 2008 amounted to SEK 2 million. This acquisition boosts Cybercom's position in this market and brings Cybercom into demand as an expert IT-forensics consultancy, which enables sophisticated analyses of intrusion and other IT-related crimes. Cybercom is an internationally recognised supplier for investigation of industrial espionage, economic crime, and fraud.
