Armor Launches Cybersecurity Channel Partner Program

Cybersecurity firm Armor has launched a global channel partner program.

The program is designed for managed service providers, resellers and technology partners interested in the company’s managed cyber-defense portfolio. Armor’s managed security services include:

  • Consolidated Threat Intelligence with Human Analysis: Monitors and analyzes intelligence from more than 50 external global threat intelligence feeds
  • Managed Escalating Attack Loads: Manages more than 250 million attacks per month
  • Blocked Attacks at a 35M:1 Ratio: For every 35 million attacks blocked, only one is successful
  • Length of time threat actor have access to data (Dwell Time): More than 100 times shorter than the industry average of 147 days

“Our partnership with Armor came as the result of an extensive market evaluation to find a security partner that understood our unique needs, and had the technology in place to support it,” said Ric Opal, executive vice president at Peters & Associates. “Globalization and cloud adoption has become a common practice for customers of Peters & Associates in recent years, which brought new, large-scale security and compliance challenges. With Armor, we are able to secure our customers and successfully deliver scalable compliance based solutions that have been battle-tested and proven over the last seven years.”

The Armor Global Partner Program provides partners with various resources and tiered benefits, including:

  • Partner Portal: Access to the Learning Library, marketing materials and sales resources.
  • Dedicated Resources: Upon reaching different tiers, partners will have the ability to receive a dedicated Armor marketing manager and partner sales resource to offer guidance and support.
  • Marketing Support: To help move prospects through the sales pipeline, partners will have access to sales collateral, technical and sales presentations and complete documentation, and customer evidence. Additionally, marketing development funds (MDF) will be available to partners based upon recurring monthly revenue.
  • Deal Registration: Ability to register new customer opportunities through a portal for enhanced sales support.
  • Online Events/Webinars: Educational resources to keep partners updated on market trends and Armor product offerings through online events and webinars.
  • Training: Both online and in person technical and sales content will be offered to ensure the success of all Armor Partners.

“Regardless of the technological sophistication and security know-how that companies can obtain through cybersecurity partnership programs, no company can reach its full revenue potential without clear lines of communication and promotional support from its partner,” said Daniel Mannion, vice president of partner and alliances at Armor. “The Armor Global Partnership Program takes this philosophy to heart, and ensures that the trust that partners put in our security services is rewarded with unparalleled support and advanced resources for mutual success.”
