Symantec Corp. is rolling out an enhanced channel partner program designed to help security-focused partners grow their businesses.
Symantec Secure One offers simplified competency and certification requirements, along with a “Growth Accelerator Rebate.” Also, a new distributor program will be included under the Secure One umbrella.
The Growth Accelerator Rebate (GAR) sets one goal on net new business and pays out from the first transaction. Once a partner reaches the Platinum tier in any of the Integrate competencies (Threat Protection, Information Protection or Cyber Security Services), partners participate in a predictable, profitable GAR across the entire security portfolio, including Core Security.
The company has also streamlined specific requirements (technical validation, customer references, sales certification requirements), so that our partners can attain Platinum status faster.
“With an increased focus on cybersecurity and a strengthened portfolio aimed squarely at solutions that address today’s most sophisticated attackers, we’re rolling out Symantec Secure One to enable our partners to leverage our products and services to grow their businesses,” said John Thompson, global senior vice president of partner and channel sales, Symantec. “At its core, the enhanced program provides our partners with a clear path to take advantage of the innovation and growth we expect to drive as the world’s largest cybersecurity company.”
