Danvers, Mass. — April 28, 2026 — NetCov (Network Coverage), a leading provider of managed IT, cybersecurity, and cloud services, today announced the acquisition of Novawatch, a Scottsdale-based managed detection and response and Security Operations Center provider.

The acquisition builds on NetCov’s longstanding investment in cybersecurity, enhancing its ability to deliver and manage security outcomes directly while preserving the specialized expertise, service model, and team that Novawatch clients rely on today.

“Cybersecurity has never been more critical for our clients. We have built NetCov to combine deep technical capability with a service experience they can rely on every day. As threats continue to evolve, we are investing further in cybersecurity, and Novawatch strengthens how we deliver while deepening our ownership of client outcomes. Together, we are raising the standard for what a modern IT and security partner should be,” said Chris Sachse, CEO of NetCov.

Novawatch has built a strong reputation for delivering focused, high-touch cybersecurity services, supported by a dedicated team and a mature operational model, a standard that will continue as part of NetCov.

“Novawatch has always been built around delivering focused, high-touch cybersecurity services. That foundation remains unchanged. As part of NetCov, we now have the ability to expand those capabilities and support our clients with additional resources, while continuing to deliver the experience they trust,” said Gregg Martin, COO of Novawatch.

The acquisition enhances how NetCov delivers cybersecurity across prevention, detection, and response by increasing alignment, integration, and ownership within its platform, while connecting those capabilities more closely with its cloud, advisory, infrastructure, and managed IT services.

Together, the organizations are positioned to support clients with:

• 24/7 security monitoring and response
• Advanced threat detection and incident response
• Cybersecurity strategy, advisory, and compliance support
• Cloud advisory, migration, and optimization
