DATAGROUP Expands SME Portfolio with Acquisition of TARADOR

DATAGROUP has acquired TARADOR GmbH, reinforcing its position in IT security solutions tailored to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). TARADOR, based in Potsdam, specializes in IT security for SMEs and public institutions, providing services such as firewall integration, VPN, and antivirus solutions. The company serves over 400 customers, primarily in critical infrastructure, generating around EUR 8 million in annual revenue.

This acquisition is part of DATAGROUP's strategic growth initiative in the SME sector, strengthening its cyber security offerings, a key area of focus. CEO Andreas Baresel emphasizes the importance of cyber security and the benefits of enhanced service offerings for SME customers. Sebastian Lindner, Managing Director of TARADOR, sees the acquisition as an opportunity to expand service capabilities, benefiting both the team and clientele.

TARADOR's regional presence, particularly in Berlin and Brandenburg, complements DATAGROUP's portfolio. This acquisition follows previous investments in Hövermann IT-Gruppe and CONPLUS, enhancing cross-selling and upselling potentials within DATAGROUP's SME segment, aligning with its long-term growth strategies.
