Cybersecurity specialist Exclusive Networks has become the first value-added distribution partner for Salt Security, a global API security company.
Through the partnership, Exclusive will help scale and support the adoption of the Salt Security platform across the EMEA region, enabling channel partners to address this significant and growing market opportunity.
“We are pleased to be working together with Exclusive Networks to enable channel partners across EMEA, as well as to leverage its recognised specialist capabilities in bringing new technology to market,” said Sunil Dutt, director of channel sales, EMEA and APAC at Salt Security.
The agreement will help combat the growing risk of API-specific cyber threats, both firms said.
“API security is now a defined category in cybersecurity, reflecting both the grave risks that API threats represent and the inadequacy of general-purpose AppSec solutions to defend against today’s sophisticated API attacks,” Dutt added.
Exclusive will take the lead on channel development, driving partner recruitment, onboarding and enablement. Nuaware, Exclusive’s DevSecOps and cloud-native technologies specialist, will provide additional go-to-market momentum by focusing on end-user engagement, creating market demand, and driving customer adoption.
“Salt Security is a perfect fit and aligns seamlessly with the rest of our portfolio,” said Denis Ferrand-Ajchenbaum (pictured), VP of global ecosystems and alliances at Exclusive Networks. “We’re very excited about growing the base of Salt Security partners and supporting their go-to-market; including equipping them with fast, compelling audit capabilities that put API security onto the customer agenda.”
