cyan AG, a provider of intelligent cybersecurity solutions, has achieved a significant milestone in its growth strategy by acquiring its first German Internet service provider (ISP) as a customer through its partnership with CANCOM, one of Germany's largest IT system integrators. The deal, announced just months after the partnership was formed, marks the beginning of what cyan expects to be a series of contracts with German ISPs.
Starting in September 2026, the ISP will market cyan's cybersecurity solution, cyan Guard 360, to its customers. The solution is designed to protect small and medium-sized businesses from digital threats such as phishing. This move reflects a structural increase in demand in the ISP market, as providers seek high-quality value-added services to sustainably increase their average revenue per user (ARPU). cyan Guard 360 addresses this need with a simple, cloud-based solution that integrates easily into existing provider infrastructures.
The solution focuses on protecting residential customers and SMEs from phishing, malware, and other malicious content. It can be implemented quickly, is intuitive to use, and requires no significant additional effort on the part of the customer. ISPs can use it to expand their service portfolio while tapping into new, high-margin revenue streams.
Markus Cserna, CEO of cyan AG, stated: "The first direct ISP deal in Germany is concrete proof that our growth strategy is working – and at a remarkable pace. There is strong and growing demand among German Internet service providers to offer their customers real added value through cybersecurity services while simultaneously increasing ARPU. Our cybersecurity solution, cyan Guard 360, meets this need."
