Washington, D.C. (Nov. 12, 2015) – Ridge Global, a world leader in helping organizations become cyber resilient, and Secure Strategy Group, a boutique provider of market intelligence and capital markets services to emerging growth security technology companies, are pleased to announce the launch of a new business venture focused on the rapidly growing need for security enterprises that deliver both physical and cyber security solutions.
