Our highlights
cyan achieves operational profitability
cyan reached an important milestone in the first half of 2025: the company is now operating profitably. This confirms the decision to focus consistently on its core business of cybersecurity. The rapidly growing end customer base and higher recurring revenues are proving to be key growth drivers – central factors for the profitability achieved. Through stringent cost and structural measures, cyan has created a robust basis for profitable growth. The company is thus entering the coming year from a position of operational strength and is strategically and technologically well positioned to further expand its business model through existing and new partnerships.
Management and IR at the Eigenkapitalforum in Frankfurt am Main
At this year's Deutsches Eigenkapitalforum of Deutsche Börse in Frankfurt am Main, cyan took the opportunity to talk to numerous institutional and private investors. The significant increase in investor interest compared to last year reflects the latest operational progress and the clear strategic direction. In addition, the management gave several interviews with relevant specialized and business media, in which they discussed cyan's strategic direction and the scalability of the company's technology, as well as the growth prospects in the cybersecurity market. The strong performance shows that cyan is increasingly becoming the focus of relevant capital market players.
Further news
cyan strengthens its visibility in trade media
This year, cyan has increased its expertise in relevant industry publications and published several technical articles, including Connect Professional and Security Insider. Of particular note is an article in which we explain how cybercriminals use captchas to circumvent protection mechanisms in order to disguise automated attacks and undermine legitimate security mechanisms. The article also explains why traditional captcha methods are becoming increasingly ineffective and how modern, AI-supported security approaches are closing this gap. If you missed the 11/2025 print edition of Connect Professional, you can read the article again in the 02/2026 edition of PCgo.
Protecting small and medium-sized businesses from cyberattacks
The article "How small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) are strengthening their defenses against hackers," published in Handelsblatt on November 20, makes it clear that SMEs are increasingly becoming the target of professional cybercriminals. According to the “Transferstelle Cybersicherheit im Mittelstand” (Cybersecurity Transfer Center for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses), the number of cyberattacks on German SMEs will more than quadruple between 2021 and 2024. At the same time, SMEs continue to have only rudimentary security structures in place.
This is exactly where cyan Guard 360 comes in: The new solution was developed specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises and effectively protects them against threats such as phishing and malware – without complex implementation, cost-efficiently and with immediate operational readiness. Since phishing has become the main gateway for cybercriminals, cyan Guard 360 offers SMEs a much needed first line of defense, addressing precisely the shortcomings highlighted in the article.
Events outside the capital market
In addition to capital market events, cyan 2025 was also present at numerous industry and technology events to further expand its visibility in the cybersecurity and telecommunications environment and to present its new product, cyan Guard 360. These included the Mobile World Congress (Barcelona), secIT (Hanover), it-sa (Nuremberg), MVNOs World (Vienna), and UK Cyber Week (London). In addition, cyan was represented at other national and international events to deepen exchanges with existing partners, pick up on market trends, and attract potential new partners.
Outlook
For 2026, cyan plans to consistently continue on its growth path and further exploit the scalability of its business model – both by expanding existing partnerships and by tapping into new markets. At the beginning of the year, cyan will also host a round table for all shareholders and interested parties to inform the capital market about current developments, trends, and cyan's strategic direction and to facilitate direct dialogue. Invitations will be sent out in good time at the beginning of the new year. With these measures, cyan is creating a strong foundation for driving forward its operational development and sustainably strengthening its position in the international cybersecurity market.
Season's greetings
As the year draws to a close, we would like to thank you for your trust and interest in cyan. We wish you and your families a wonderful and relaxing Christmas season, peaceful holidays, and a successful start to the new year!
