Datavault AI, a provider of data monetization and digital engagement technologies listed on Nasdaq under the ticker DVLT, and CyberCatch Holdings, a cybersecurity company listed on the TSXV under CYBE, have entered into a binding letter of intent under which Datavault AI will acquire 100% of CyberCatch in an all-stock transaction. The implied aggregate value to CyberCatch’s outstanding common shares is CAD $136.8 million. The parties have agreed to negotiate a definitive agreement during a 45-day mutual exclusivity period.
CyberCatch provides a patented, AI-enabled Software-as-a-Service platform that uses generative AI to verify required cybersecurity controls and agentic AI to continuously simulate threat-actor tactics, techniques, and procedures through penetration testing. The platform maps to NIST CSF 2.0, NIST 800-171, CMMC 2.0, HIPAA, and other regulated frameworks. CyberCatch is also converting its MARS-MABE multi-authority attribute-based encryption technology to post-quantum cryptography, positioning the combined company ahead of the quantum computing timeline that Google has compressed to as early as 2029.
Following closing, CyberCatch will operate as a Datavault AI subsidiary in San Diego, with founder and CEO Sai Huda serving as President of the subsidiary. The transaction is positioned at the convergence of CMMC regulatory enforcement, which entered Phase 1 in November 2025 with mandatory assessments affecting approximately 220,000 Defense Industrial Base contractors, and the rapidly expanding global information security market projected at $240 billion in 2026.
KEY QUOTES:
“Cybersecurity is no longer a separate stack from data and AI, it is the precondition for both. CyberCatch’s continuous compliance platform is expected to provide another strategic advantage by adding a real-time risk and compliance signal at every node of our quantum-secured edge fleet.”
Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO, Datavault AI
“Datavault AI’s quantum-ready edge platform is exactly the next-generation infrastructure our customers and the marketplace in critical sectors such as defense, healthcare, and financial services need cybersecurity built into. Joining Datavault AI gives them a clear path to a unified secure-data platform with continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation built in.”
Sai Huda, Founder, Chairman and CEO, CyberCatch
