Sole Source Capital Acquires Brite, a Cybersecurity & Managed Services Provider

Sole Source Capital has acquired Brite, marking its first platform investment from SSC Partners Fund III and a clear entry into the cybersecurity and managed services space. The deal signals an intent to build a scalable services platform in a market shaped by outsourcing demand, regulatory pressure, and steady recurring revenue models.

Brite operates across cybersecurity, managed IT services, and technology solutions, serving customers in finance, healthcare, insurance, education, and other regulated sectors. The company’s long-term customer relationships and diversified base point to predictable revenue and operational continuity. Existing leadership remains in place, keeping day-to-day execution and customer relationships intact.

For Sole Source, this investment aligns with a familiar playbook: backing founder-led or management-led services businesses in fragmented markets and supporting growth through operational focus and add-on acquisitions. Cybersecurity and managed services fit squarely into that strategy, offering steady demand and room to expand capabilities as customers continue to outsource critical IT and security functions.

The transaction adds to a broader pattern of private equity firms leaning into services platforms that combine security, IT operations, and compliance support under one roof. As buyers look for fewer vendors they can rely on long term, platform investments like this suggest that scale, execution discipline, and repeatable service delivery remain central to how capital is flowing into the managed services market in 2026.
