As organizations increasingly adopt cloud-based SaaS platforms alongside on-premise environments, they face a growing set of challenges. Expanding attack surfaces across multiple cloud providers and on-premise systems increase exposure to risks, while unmanaged SaaS licensing, storage services, and on-premise resources drive unnecessary costs and inefficiencies.

Recognizing these critical pain points, K9 Cybertech has partnered with Alchemy CyberDefence to deliver the ACD Optimizer—a robust platform that provides unmatched visibility, security, cost control, and compliance management across SaaS and on-premise ecosystems.

The Challenges We Solve:
