Silent Breach Launches Retail Cyber Association to Address Industry-Wide Cybersecurity Challenges

New York, NY, February 07, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Silent Breach, a global cybersecurity firm, today announced the launch of the Retail Cyber Association (RCA), an industry partnership designed to provide retailers with collective defense against cyber threats. As the creator and managing organization of RCA, Silent Breach established the association to address coordinated protection needs in an industry facing risks from ransomware, e-commerce fraud, deepfake phishing, supply chain breaches, and insider threats.

The retail sector processes billions of transactions annually through interconnected vendor networks. According to industry research, vulnerabilities in retail systems can result in significant disruption, financial losses, and erosion of customer trust. The Retail Cyber Association enables real-time threat intelligence sharing, provides specialized incident response capabilities, and delivers industry-specific research and guidance.

"Retailers face an evolving threat landscape that no single organization can combat alone," said Marc Castejon, CEO of Silent Breach. "The Retail Cyber Association represents a fundamental shift in how our industry approaches cybersecurity—moving from isolated defenses to a unified front. By pooling our collective intelligence, expertise, and resources, we're creating a resilience that benefits every member and strengthens the entire retail ecosystem."

RCA provides members with access to a shared threat intelligence hub with real-time alerts on emerging threats, a Retail-Specific Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) offering 24/7 expert guidance, supply chain risk management tools, and compliance support for regulations including PCI DSS and GDPR. The platform integrates with existing security infrastructure while enabling anonymous sharing of indicators of compromise and threat data among members.

The association offers three membership tiers tailored to organizational needs: RCA Foundation for essential threat intelligence and awareness, RCA Growth providing advanced intelligence and CERT access with proactive monitoring, and RCA Enterprise Guardian delivering full integration with dedicated CERT support, comprehensive supply chain security, and strategic advisory services.
