On February 5, 2025, Cisco completed its acquisition of SnapAttack, a cyber threat hunting and detection company that was spun out of Booz Allen Hamilton in 2021. Booz Allen remained an investor in SnapAttack following its spinout.
SnapAttack was initially incubated and publicly launched by Booz Allen DarkLabs in 2020, leveraging Booz Allen’s innovative intellectual property and advanced technology capabilities. The spinout included a dedicated technical team and a standalone product.
Booz Allen's Chief Financial Officer, Matt Calderone, stated that the spinout and subsequent acquisition demonstrate the power of dual-use technology to speed outcomes. This outcome allows for further scaling of sophisticated cyber capabilities in the commercial market, benefiting government missions.
