e92plus expands security portfolio with ThreatLocker partnership

The collaboration will cover the UK, Ireland, and Benelux

British VAD e92plus has partnered with ThreatLocker to arm partners with ransomware and zero-day challenges solutions.

The VARs, MSPs and GSIs partnering with e92plus will now have access to Threatlocker solutions across the UK, Ireland, and Benelux.

ThreatLocker has expanded its offering to include threat intelligence, patch management and protection for Microsoft 365 alongside its current endpoint, EDR and MDR solutions.

According to a recent study commissioned by the vendor, Threatlocker’s solutions resulted in a 99 per cent reduction in security incidents, a $4m (£3.1m) average risk reduction, and a $1.2m in reduced licencing costs.

“The Zero Trust concept has proven popular with large enterprises but historically has been too complex for many organisations to embrace at scale and velocity” said Mukesh Gupta, CEO of e92plus.

“We’re very excited to be partnering with ThreatLocker, as their unique disruptive approach presents a huge opportunity for our channel community and enables them to differentiate from their competitors offering legacy solutions”.

The company joins the array of over 30 vendors already partnering with e92plus.

Less than a year ago, the distie announced its partnership with Tanium, a cybersecurity vendor and converged endpoint management (XEM) specialist.

The company serves VARs, MSPs, and GSIs.

In a recent interview with CRN, Gupta identified MSPs as being one of the firm’s “biggest areas of growth.”

In addition to ThreatLocker, other vendors have specialised into zero trust security (ZTS), such as Illumio and Zscaler, while some offer solutions supporting zero trust strategies without necessarily being their core focus, like Crowdstrike.

The Florida-based cybersecurity vendor also aims to makes zero trust affordable, in an attempt to expand its offering towards businesses of all sizes.
