The partnership marks a significant milestone in FullProxy’s ten-year journey and creates a stronger platform for growth, bringing together FullProxy’s specialist cyber expertise with Viatel’s broader capabilities across connectivity, digital services, managed IT and cybersecurity. 

Founded in 2016, FullProxy has built a reputation as one of the UK’s leading specialist cyber security consultancies, helping organisations in highly regulated and security-critical sectors strengthen their cyber resilience, optimise technology investments and navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape. 

The company has experienced exceptional growth over the last 18 months, growing annual revenues by 135% year on year while continuing to invest in technical capability, customer success and strategic partnerships. Today, FullProxy’s consultants hold expert-level accreditations from leading technologies including F5, Fortinet, Zscaler and AppViewX, supporting customers across healthcare, government, education, financial services, retail and critical national infrastructure. 

The brand has also received consistent industry recognition, being named in TechUK’s prestigious Tech200 list for two consecutive years and shortlisted as Scottish Cyber Security Company of the Year in both 2025 and 2026. 

The growth we’ve achieved in recent years is a testament to the quality of our people, the trust of our customers and the strength of our partnerships. We are incredibly proud of what the team has built.Ewan Ferguson, CEO of FullProxy

For customers, the acquisition provides access to a broader range of technology services and resources while preserving the specialist expertise, trusted relationships and hands-on consultancy approach that have become synonymous with the FullProxy brand. 

Ewan Ferguson, CEO of FullProxy, said: 

“Over the last decade we’ve built FullProxy around a deeply felt principle: helping customers solve complex cyber security challenges and achieve ROI through expert advice, deep technical capability and long-term trusted relationships. 

The growth we’ve achieved in recent years is a testament to the quality of our people, the trust of our customers and the strength of our partnerships. We are incredibly proud of what the team has built. 

Joining Viatel gives us the opportunity to build on that success. We share the same commitment to customer outcomes, technical excellence and long-term investment. Together, we’ll be able to offer customers even greater capability while continuing to deliver the specialist expertise and personal service they value from FullProxy.” 

Paul Rellis, CEO of Viatel Technology Group, said: 

“FullProxy has established an outstanding reputation in the cyber security market through its technical expertise, customer focus and consistent delivery. Their team brings deep specialist capability that strengthens our cyber security offering and supports our ambition to become the leading integrated technology partner across Ireland and the UK. 

We are delighted to welcome the FullProxy team to Viatel and look forward to supporting the next phase of growth together.”

The acquisition strengthens Viatel’s cyber security practice and expands its presence in Scotland and the wider UK market. It follows Viatel’s continued investment in cyber resilience, secure infrastructure and AI-ready security services as organisations face increasing pressure to protect complex digital environments. 

For FullProxy, the move provides additional scale and investment while creating new opportunities. The existing FullProxy leadership team will remain in place, ensuring continuity for customers, partners and employees alike. 

As cyber threats continue to evolve and organisations prepare for emerging challenges such as state-level security risks, AI development, cryptographic resilience and post-quantum readiness, the combined business will be well positioned to support customers with the expertise, resources and strategic guidance they need to secure their future.
