Exertis launches cybersecurity portfolio across Europe as expansion continues

Following several new vendor signings, the tech distributor is looking to expand further in the region

Distribution giant Exertis has revealed it is launching its Exertis Cybersecurity throughout its European offices.

Since the acquisition of Exertis Enterprise (previously known as Hammer) its cybersecurity unit has been boosted and is now looking for further expansion.

Exertis is in a growth phase that has recently seen several new vendor signings including Seagate, eSentire, Progress, Scylla, Seceon and Veeam.

The European locations that will be offering cybersecurity solutions are the Nordics, Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, France and Germany.

All offices have had, and will continue to have, in-person training from the UK security directors and managers.

"We're delighted to be rolling out our cybersecurity solution stack across our European offices. We look forward to strengthening our relationships with our European colleagues, partners and customers," said Dominic Ryles, director of sales and commercial at Exertis Cybersecurity.

Steve Cowley, director of sales for Europe at Exertis Enterprise said the enterprise solutions market has evolved significantly in the years he's been in the industry, adding it has changed to dictate that a full solution stack no longer consists of simply server, storage, networking, load balancing, power protection and professional services.

"Our cybersecurity solutions will now complement our fully bespoke technology stack by protecting anything from endpoint devices to firewalls, to the world's only truly compliant zero trust architecture to XDR that monitors more in a SOC than any other vendor," Cowley said.

"Exertis Enterprise Europe has now advanced our full enterprise technology stack to become the only truly enterprise-focused distributor to also be able to provide a true enterprise cybersecurity solution."
