RedZone Technologies Expands Cybersecurity Capabilities with Passpoint Security

ANNAPOLIS, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RedZone Technologies, a portfolio company of ParkerGale, today announced a strategic transaction with Passpoint Security, expanding its cybersecurity and compliance capabilities for regulated mid-market and enterprise organizations. Passpoint enhances RedZone’s managed security programs with additional capabilities in compliance and offensive security, strengthening the company’s ability to support clients in complex, high-stakes environments where failure is not an option.

The addition of Passpoint’s capabilities strengthens RedZone’s ability to deliver IT, security, and compliance as a single, continuously managed system in environments where regulatory pressure is increasing and security risk continues to evolve. It adds depth in continuous compliance and proactive security testing, two areas that are central to how risk is managed today.

“Organizations can no longer manage IT, security, and compliance as separate functions. They have to operate as one system, continuously and predictably,” said Gary Simat, CEO of RedZone Technologies. “This move strengthens our ability to deliver that level of consistency and accountability while ensuring continuity for clients and partners.”

Passpoint brings a team of 22 professionals, established client relationships, and deep expertise in managed cybersecurity programs delivered through structured, multi-year engagements that align closely with RedZone’s approach of providing ongoing operational confidence rather than point-in-time services.

“RedZone is building a differentiated services platform focused on delivering measurable outcomes for its clients,” said Nori Welles-Gertz, Principal at ParkerGale. “The addition of Passpoint expands its cybersecurity capabilities and further strengthens its position with highly regulated organizations.”

Wade Tucker, co-founder of Passpoint Security, has joined RedZone as Head of Cybersecurity Sales, with co-founder Jon Claussen and the broader Passpoint team continuing with the organization. “Passpoint has always focused on helping organizations operate securely in environments where the margin for error is low,” said Tucker. “Joining RedZone allows us to extend that approach with greater scale and deliver it as part of a more complete, continuously managed solution.”
