Sponsored Cybersecurity Research
Turning marketing budgets into research worth reading since 2008.
Your Data Hides a Story. We Find It.
Great sponsored research starts with a simple premise: you have unique visibility into how security really works in practice — telemetry, incidents, behaviors, outcomes — that no one else has. That's genuinely valuable. The problem is that your customers know you're also trying to sell them something, which limits how much they trust research that comes from you alone.
That's where we come in. Cyentia brings the analytical rigor to find what's actually in your data, the domain expertise to know what it means, and the independent credibility to say it in a way the market won't dismiss. The result is research that earns attention rather than just downloads — and reflects well on both of us.
Finding the research angle that leads
Not every question is worth asking. The most effective sponsored research lives at the intersection of where your expertise and data are strongest, and what your customers are actually trying to understand — in territory your competitors haven't already claimed.
We help you find the sweet spot before the research begins, so you're not producing reports that sound like everyone else's.
What we bring to the partnership
Independent. Credible. Trusted.
Our independence isn't a disclaimer, it's the foundation. Cyentia grew from the team behind Verizon's DBIR, and we've spent two decades creating research that gets attention because it has something to say — not something to sell. When our logo is on the cover, it earns trust.
Rigorous Analysis. Compelling Stories.
Large, complex security datasets are our specialty — the kind most research firms can't handle. If there's a story in your data, we'll find it and follow where it leads. We then craft a narrative for a skeptical security audience that knows the difference between analysis and marketing.
We Don't Just Publish. We Promote.
Most independent research firms hand over a PDF and call it done. We stand behind our work, actively promoting it through social media, joint webinars, industry conferences, invited keynotes, and top-tier media. Your research investment should produce visibility, not just a document.
