EOR Services for Cyber Security Companies
Build international cyber security teams with expert Employer of Record (EOR) services
Cyber security has expanded significantly in recent years as organisations invest more in protecting digital infrastructure, data and increasingly complex technological environments. According to the UK Government’s 2026 Cyber Security Sectoral Analysis, UK cyber security sector revenue increased from £8.9 billion in 2020 to £14.7 billion in 2025. Over the same period, employment across the sector grew from around 46,700 to almost 69,600 roles.
The boom in AI is also reshaping the cyber security market. The same UK Government research found that the number of UK firms explicitly offering cyber security for AI systems increased by 68% in a single year.
As cyber security companies scale to meet this changing demand, securing specialist talent can become a challenge. But Leap29’s Employer of Record (EOR) services allow you to hire employees internationally without establishing a legal entity in every new market.
We manage the employment framework behind your international workforce, helping you:
- Employ cyber security professionals in over 180 countries.
- Manage local employment contracts, tax and statutory requirements.
- Run compliant international payroll with transparent EOR pricing.

Employer of Record Services for Cyber Security Businesses
Why do cyber security companies need EOR services?
Competition for experienced cyber security professionals remains intense. ENISA’s NIS Investments 2025 report estimates that the global cyber security workforce shortfall reached 4.8 million, while 45% of surveyed organisations identified difficulty finding candidates with the required skills as their main hiring barrier.
For cyber security businesses, accessing international talent can widen the available candidate pool and make it easier to secure specialist skills that may be difficult to source locally. That’s why cyber security companies may use an EOR service to hire for roles such as:
- Cyber Security Engineers
- Security Operations Centre (SOC) Analysts
- Penetration Testers
- Ethical Hackers
- Cloud Security Engineers
- Application Security Engineers
- Network Security Engineers
- Incident Response Specialists
- Threat Intelligence Analysts
- Security Architects
- Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) Specialists
- Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs)
However, employing people across borders introduces another set of complex responsibilities. Employment law, payroll deductions, statutory benefits, worker classification and onboarding requirements vary considerably from country to country.
An EOR legally employs your international team members on your behalf while you retain control over their day-to-day responsibilities. Leap29 can also provide ongoing international HR support as your workforce develops.
Supporting compliant international growth
Cyber security companies may already work within demanding regulatory environments. In the EU, for example, NIS2 extends cyber security requirements to organisations including managed service providers and managed security service providers.
An EOR does not replace your operational cyber security obligations, but it can remove much of the employment administration associated with building teams in new jurisdictions.
We can manage employment contracts, statutory contributions, employee benefits and multi-country payroll by acting as your central international workforce partner.
Why choose Leap29 as your cyber security EOR provider?
With more than 25 years of experience and EOR support across 180+ countries, Leap29 helps businesses employ international specialists without the cost and delay of creating a local entity.
