Anti-ransomware platform provider Halcyon announced a strategic agreement with Pax8 to enhance market outreach and fortify businesses against ransomware threats. Specifically, Halcyon’s platform will be made available as part of Pax8’s technology marketplace, empowering partners and their customers to access the robust security solution.
“Halcyon is designed to seamlessly integrate with other Pax8 Marketplace vendors, addressing the critical security gap posed by ransomware,” said Halcyon VP of global MSSP and channels, Chris Catanzaro. “Our strategic partnership with Pax8 will provide operational resilience to partners and their customers, ensuring swift recovery in the face of a ransomware attack.”
