Distology and Flare team up to bring dark web threat intelligence into the spotlight

The partnership comes as the distributor has enhanced its portfolio of security vendors over the past few months

Distology has partnered with security intelligence and threat exposure management vendor Flare to help MSSPs scale threat visibility.

This new partnership will allow to the Quebec-based vendor to leverage Distology’s partner ecosystem in EMEA.

Security providers across the UK and Europe will be able to embed Flare’s dark web intelligence into their offerings.

This will aim to boost their access to insight into leaked corporate credentials, brand impersonation activity, and ransomware operator planning.

Flare’s proprietary external threat monitoring platform is designed to help security teams detect and act on risks beyond the traditional perimeter.

The organisation aims to help deliver real-time alerts, extensive API access, and workflows to support red teaming, executive monitoring, incident response, as well as attack surface and vulnerability management.

“The platform provides unparalleled actionable intelligence on external threats, but what really stood out when I used the platform was how simple it was to use - intelligence was surfaced clearly, and it was up and running in no time,” said Kobi Hunn, solutions engineering manager at Distology.

“For our customers and partners, it offers a proactive threat-hunting capability and a greater peace of mind in an increasingly complex landscape.”

Andrew Bartlam, VP of EMEA and global channels at Flare, added: “This partnership is about more than just market expansion; it’s about values alignment.

“Flare and Distology both believe that cybersecurity is a mission - not just a market.

“Together, we’re enabling partners to embed external threat intelligence into their offerings, helping MSSPs scale threat visibility, and giving defenders the context they need to act before attacks hit.”

This new partnership is the latest in a series of security vendors signing with Distology.

The Stockport-based distie recently joined forces with OT security solutions vendor Radiflow to help organisation tackle OT security challenges across industries.

In January, it partnered with US-based vendor Halcyon to distribute its ransomware protection software in the UK.
