Data-centric cloud security company Lookout established a strategic partnership with cloud commerce marketplace Pax8.
This agreement will specifically focus on enabling MSPs to acquire Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security directly from the Pax8 Marketplace. Backed by actionable threat intelligence, Lookout mobile endpoint security combines visibility, research and protection to deliver advanced endpoint detection and response (EDR) for iOS, Android and ChromeOS.
Lookout, it should be noted, is the only mobile EDR solution in the Pax8 marketplace.
Lookout allows MSPs to deliver managed mobile security services to safeguard customer personal and professional data on corporate-owned and personal mobile devices. Powered by telemetry from more than 300 million mobile apps and 220 million devices, Lookout mobile endpoint security delivers advanced protection with native multi-tenancy and zero-click deployment. This helps MSPs to scale mobile security services that protect customers against threats, including mobile phishing, malicious websites, risky apps and OS/app vulnerabilities.
“Lookout has been the leader in mobile security since our inception in 2007, and we believe that small to mid-sized organizations deserve the same comprehensive mobile security solutions that are offered to large enterprises and government agencies,” said Dan Donovan, CRO, Lookout. “With Lookout, MSPs can help their customers close critical security gaps on mobile devices such as mobile phishing, malicious websites and OS/app vulnerabilities.”
Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security addresses the business needs of MSPs by offering:
- A 95 percent rate of issue resolution by the end user.
- Minimal support requirements.
- Multi-tenancy for centralized, scalable policy management across clients.
- Co-management to extend visibility and administrative control to MSP clients.
- Flexible pricing models to accommodate existing service contracts without any minimum commitments.
- Centralized reporting for comprehensive oversight across all clients.
“In a world where mobile devices are used for personal and organizational tasks, establishing the appropriate security and privacy measures is essential,” said Nick Heddy, chief commerce officer with Pax8. “With Lookout, Pax8 partners can reduce customer risk and meet their compliance objectives by closing the security gap across all iOS, Android and ChromeOS for both managed and unmanaged (BYOD) devices in a way that respects end-user privacy.”
