Lancope expands Global Secure Partner Programme

Lancope, Inc. announces the expansion of its recently launched global Secure Partner Program to the EMEAR and APAC markets. The Lancope® Secure Partner Program empowers resellers around the world to capitalise on the industry-leading network defense capabilities of the Lancope StealthWatch® System to help vastly improve the security posture of their end customers. The program is now available in Europe, and will be rolled out to other regions including the Middle East, Africa and APAC in a phased approach over the coming months.

“In today’s era of advanced persistent threats (APTs) and zero-day malware, organisations can no longer rely on conventional security solutions,” said Yvonne Matzk, Alliances Director, Cisco at Kelway Ltd. “Lancope’s StealthWatch System enables our customers to cost-effectively leverage existing infrastructure in order to significantly increase their network security. The new Secure Partner Program will maximise our ability to market and sell award-winning network protection to both our commercial and public sector customers.”

Through the collection and analysis of NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX and other types of flow data, the StealthWatch System delivers advanced network behavior and security analytics for fast, effective threat detection, incident response and network forensics. The technology enables organisations around the globe to quickly detect a wide range of cyber-attacks – including malware, DDoS attempts, APTs and insider threats – before they wreak havoc on network assets. The StealthWatch System helps enterprises uncover attacks at various stages of the attacker’s “kill chain” in order to avoid devastating data breaches.

The Lancope Secure Partner Program is a global initiative designed to provide Lancope’s valuable reseller partners with substantial discounts, as well as training opportunities and marketing resources to help them successfully gain traction with the StealthWatch System in their respective regions. Dimension Data and Kelway Ltd are some of the partners that have already signed on to be part of the Lancope Secure Partner Program in the UK.

“We are thrilled to see the incredible momentum that we are experiencing for the new Lancope Secure Partner Program,” said Dan Sibille, Vice President of Worldwide Channels for Lancope. “The UK and Europe as a whole are critical markets for us, and we are excited to work with such knowledgeable reseller partners to enable additional organizations in the region to strengthen their network defenses.”
