Datavault AI Inc., a NASDAQ-listed technology company focused on data monetisation, credentialing, digital engagement and real-world asset tokenisation, has agreed to acquire CyberCatch Holdings, Inc. for $94.5m as it looks to add continuous cyber risk and compliance capabilities to its technology portfolio.
Under the proposed all-cash transaction, Datavault AI will pay $3.53 per CyberCatch share, covering approximately 26.8 million outstanding common shares. The acquisition is being structured through a court-approved plan of arrangement under British Columbia’s Business Corporations Act. Completion remains subject to board, stock exchange, regulatory and shareholder approvals.
CyberCatch will continue operating as a San Diego-based subsidiary following completion. Its founder, chairman and CEO Sai Huda will become president and report to Datavault AI CEO Nathaniel T. Bradley. The transaction will also settle CyberCatch’s dilutive securities through a cashless-exercise arrangement.
The acquisition is intended to strengthen Datavault AI’s position in cybersecurity as organisations face faster-moving digital threats and growing compliance requirements. CyberCatch’s technology combines generative AI with continuous security testing to assess regulatory controls and identify potential weaknesses across an organisation’s environment.
Its platform produces a Cyber Hygiene Score by assessing compliance controls and a Cyber Breach Score through agentic AI that simulates attacker behaviour. Testing covers outside-in, inside-out and social engineering scenarios and is mapped against frameworks including NIST CSF 2.0, CMMC 2.0, ISO 27001, HIPAA and PCI DSS.
CyberCatch’s technology is used across sectors including defence, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, education and government. The company also works with reseller partners including Speridian Technologies and Sterling Advisors Group, while its advisory board includes former US Homeland Security secretary Tom Ridge.
Datavault AI plans to integrate CyberCatch’s compliance and cyber risk capabilities across its DataValue, DataScore and Information Data Exchange products, as well as its Acoustic Sciences division and workloads serving federal and regulated-industry customers. The companies also intend to develop CyberCatch’s patent-pending MARS-MABE encryption technology towards quantum-resistant applications, alongside continued agentic AI penetration testing.
Datavault AI CEO Nathaniel T. Bradley said, “Cybersecurity is no longer a separate stack from data and AI. It is the precondition for both. CyberCatch’s continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation platform is expected to add to DataValue, DataScore, and IDE a real-time risk and compliance signal at every node of our edge fleet, from federal contractors to enterprise data customers.”
CyberCatch CEO Sai Huda added, “Datavault AI’s quantum-ready edge platform is exactly the next-generation infrastructure our customers and the marketplace in critical sectors such as defense, healthcare, and financial services need cybersecurity built into. Joining Datavault AI gives our customers a clear path to a unified secure-data platform with continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation built in.”
