MorganFranklin Cyber transitions to Arcova to support enterprises navigating complex threat landscapes


MorganFranklin Cyber, a cybersecurity advisory and managed services firm, announced on Monday that it has rebranded as Arcova, reflecting the company’s evolution and expanded cybersecurity, AI, resilience, and adjacent domain capabilities, with its continued secure-by-design philosophy. The new identity underscores the firm’s mission to help enterprises shape what’s next and accelerate meaningful, measurable progress.

Since its launch as a cybersecurity practice in 2018, MorganFranklin Cyber has become a global leader in enterprise cybersecurity and AI consulting. Building on its private equity-backed management buyout (MBO) from MorganFranklin Consulting (now Highspring) and acquisition of Lynx Technology Partners in 2025, the firm has advanced its growth and market momentum while expanding its workforce in the U.S. and internationally. 

The new brand represents Arcova’s commitment to helping clients navigate an ever-evolving threat landscape through end-to-endless partnership, continuous innovation, and dedication to turning complexity into clarity, and vision into value.

“This transformation marks a defining moment in our journey,” said Keith Hollender, CEO and founding partner of Arcova. “Our evolution to Arcova reflects not just a new identity, but a simple truth this firm was founded on: clients deserve more than presentations and process. They deserve practitioners who have sat in their seat, carried the responsibility, and know firsthand what it takes to solve real problems under pressure. As the world grows more complex and interconnected, we help our clients shape what’s next, empowering them to solve their toughest problems and secure what matters most.”

Arcova is built for modern enterprises, operating among large professional services networks while leveraging the specialized expertise of a boutique consulting firm. IT represents how modern professional services should operate and differentiates itself through a practitioner-led consulting model, where teams bring both technical and tactical experience from day one, making complex challenges more manageable.

Its secure-by-design methodology ensures that modernization efforts protect AI systems and broader technology stacks from end to end. The company offers both comprehensive and targeted solutions, enabling organizations to stand up full programs or address the most critical needs, delivering what matters at the right time.

Arcova also works as an embedded partner, meeting clients where they are and operating hands-on alongside internal teams to ensure business needs are met through resilient programs that continue to evolve even after handoff. In addition, it provides global C-level guidance, offering board-ready insights shaped by years of experience supporting Fortune 500 companies and enterprises worldwide.

“Arcova represents the next chapter of growth and opportunity for our firm,” said Pete Schile, president and founding partner of Arcova. “This rebrand sharpens our focus, strengthens our market position, and aligns our capabilities with the evolving needs of modern enterprises. We recognize the challenges organizations face in building and maintaining robust technology programs that keep security at the forefront. With an approach rooted in partnership, we are uniquely positioned to deliver results-driven progress for our clients at every stage of their journey.”

Through its secure-by-design philosophy, Arcova delivers comprehensive and scalable solutions that strengthen resilience and protect the critical assets organizations need. The firm’s expertise spans across Cyber Strategy and GRC, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Architecture, Engineering and Infrastructure/Operational Technology Security (AEGIS), Adaptive Resilience, Identity and Access Management (IAM), and Cyber Fusion Center (CFC).

Arcova’s services include advisory and management consulting, providing executive-level guidance to improve performance and steer program execution. The company also operates a Cybersecurity Innovation Center, a cloud-based lab designed to develop and advance cybersecurity solutions.

Its project resourcing services supply scalable support and specialized skills to strengthen internal teams and ensure consistent, successful execution. In addition, Arcova offers managed services that allow organizations to outsource key functions to efficiently run and sustain their programs.

“While our name may be changing, our purpose remains constant,” said Jonah Dimeo, senior partner and founding partner of Arcova. “This transformation reflects the culture we’ve built, one rooted in trust, collaboration, and a shared belief in what’s possible. As we grow, we’re expanding our ability to deliver bold, secure, and future‑ready solutions, and we’re energized by the opportunity to help organizations shape what’s next with clarity and confidence.”

The rebrand includes a new visual identity, updated website, and enhanced messaging that reflects the firm’s expanded capabilities in AI and emerging technologies with its continued secure-by-design philosophy. Existing client relationships, leadership and service offerings remain the same. The name may be new, but the core beliefs of the firm have never changed.

Arcova believes that no one should navigate complexity alone. As enterprises face evolving threats and unprecedented technological change, Arcova is dedicated to making complexity manageable and turning today’s challenges into tomorrow’s advantages.
