With origins in defence and federal government, Security Centric brings expertise in managed detection & response, GRC & advisory, security engineering and technical assurance. Its team will join VITG’s expanding security practice, forming a combined group of approximately 45 cybersecurity specialists.

VITG is an Australian founded MSP and MSSP with ten offices across Australia and New Zealand.
