Summary

  • $94.5 million in cash will buy all 26.8 million CyberCatch shares at $3.53 each under a definitive agreement signed by Datavault AI.
  • The deal is meant to fold CyberCatch’s AI-driven continuous compliance and cyber-risk platform into Datavault AI’s quantum-secured edge stack, adding automated checks, penetration testing and remediation.
  • CyberCatch is also bringing its MARS-MABE encryption technology, which Datavault AI said is being adapted for post-quantum security as AI-enabled attacks accelerate.
  • After closing, CyberCatch is expected to operate as a San Diego subsidiary led by founder Sai Huda, subject to shareholder, court, exchange and other regulatory approvals.
  • Datavault AI is pitching the acquisition at a time when Gartner pegs the information-security market at $213 billion and CrowdStrike reported AI-enabled adversary attacks jumped 89% in 2025.
