Q6 Cyber, a Miami-based company specializing in threat intelligence and fraud prevention, has received a significant growth investment from Charlesbank Capital Partners. The funding comes through Charlesbank’s Technology Opportunities Fund. It is intended to help Q6 Cyber accelerate its expansion, enhance its product offerings, and pursue strategic acquisitions that will broaden its capabilities and reach.
Founded in 2016, Q6 Cyber has established a reputation for helping financial institutions, including banks and credit unions, proactively detect and prevent fraud. Unlike traditional cybersecurity tools that often respond after an incident has occurred, Q6’s platform is designed to identify threats before they cause damage. It does this by monitoring covert online spaces, including the dark web, where criminal activity often begins. By catching early signs of fraud and cyber threats, Q6 helps its clients avoid financial losses and improve the effectiveness of their security teams.
Over the years, Q6 has demonstrated strong growth and consistent results. Its technology has helped prevent hundreds of millions of dollars in potential fraud losses, and its approach has transformed how financial institutions think about risk. Instead of reacting to problems, Q6 enables them to take a proactive stance, identifying vulnerabilities and threats before they escalate.
The company’s leadership team, including founder and CEO Eli Dominitz, will remain in place and continue to guide Q6 through its next phase of growth. With the support of Charlesbank, Q6 plans to invest further in its technology, expand its presence in new markets, and explore acquisitions that complement its existing services.
This investment reflects a broader trend in the cybersecurity and financial services industries, where organizations are increasingly looking for smarter, more predictive tools to combat evolving threats. As digital fraud becomes more sophisticated, companies like Q6 Cyber are playing a critical role in helping institutions stay ahead of the curve.
Advisors/counsel: AGC Partners served as financial advisor to Q6, with Lowenstein Sandler as counsel. Mintz acted as counsel for Charlesbank.
