Snell & Wilmer Represents Lumifi in Acquisition of Netsurion

May 22, 2024

PHOENIX – Snell & Wilmer advised Lumifi®, a leading innovator in cybersecurity and managed detection and response (MDR) services offering Fortune 500-level security solutions to support security-conscious teams, in its acquisition of Netsurion, a Managed Extended Detection and Response (XDR) provider. 

The acquisition is projected to allow Lumifi to deliver enhanced security to Netsuiron’s customer base via Lumifi’s U.S.-based Security Operations Center (SOC), along with Lumifi’ s proprietary SHIELDVision™ platform. This is Lumifi’s third acquisition since 2022 and second in the past twelve months. Netsurion’s prevalence among managed service provider (MSP) clientele will support Lumifi’s strategic endeavors into the MSP space. 

“For years, Lumifi has developed proprietary technology unique to the MDR use case, and we can’t wait to bring that to our newest clients,” said Lumifi CTO David Norlin in a recent press release. “Our mission is to deliver a great service and bring forward technology that helps practitioners solve problems quickly. We’re committed to building a relationship with our clients that continually improves their security posture, stays proactive, and allows their business to grow.”

Tony Caldwell and Bryce Morgan led the Snell & Wilmer team advising Lumifi throughout the deal. The acquisition team included Nicole Smith, Monica Bell, and paralegal Sharon Ferraro (Corporate); Bahar Schippel (Tax); R. Lee Fraley (Intellectual Property); and Craig O’Loughlin (Labor and Employment).

In October 2023, Lumifi unveiled its plan to expand its portfolio by targeting similar cybersecurity firms through its acquisition of Castra, which the same Snell & Wilmer team also advised on.
