Reston’s LookingGlass Cyber Solutions acquires Texas tech firm

AlphaWave Inc. specializes in cloud-based attack surface management

Published June 22, 2021 by Richard Foster

Reston-based cybersecurity contractor LookingGlass Cyber Solutions Inc. has acquired Austin, Texas-based AlphaWave Inc., a cloud-native tech company that provides attack surface management services.

Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. In a news release, LookingGlass said the transaction will complement the Reston company’s existing cybersecurity services for federal and state government customers by “enabling deeper attack surface visibility into cloud and container environments.”

“AlphaWave’s cloud-native foundation enables them to clearly understand the nuances of managing one’s attack surface across the cloud and containers. This expertise is only going to become more critical as the private sector and government continue to undergo digital transformations and move to cloud-first strategies. We are excited to bring AlphaWave’s expertise and attack surface capabilities into the LookingGlass Suite as we deliver actionable threat intelligence enhanced with an adversary’s view and customized models of an adversary’s capabilities,” said LookingGlass CEO Gilman Louie in a statement.

Founded in 2009, LookingGlass provides cybersecurity services and employs more than 300 people.
