British cybersecurity player Goldilock has quickly ramped up its partner network, and hired a key leader to help generate even more pan-European business.
Goldilock says it has partnered with over 40 new distributors and resellers since this June, “demonstrating the broad, cross-sector appeal of its critical layer-1 physical segmentation product”, it says.
To support its European channel growth further, Wim Horseling has been appointed as channel manager for Europe. He brings over 30 years of experience in channel and sales leadership, at organisations including Dell, Siemens, and NetYCE, covering connectivity, security and data centres.
“We’ve established strong relationships with an extensive list of distributors and resellers across Europe this year, and we’re actively seeking more to join our growing network,” said Horseling. “The power of Goldilock’s solution lies in its simplicity, and I look forward to enabling the delivery of this critical technology to more industries and countries.”
Through its patented Dynamic Physical Network Segmentation (DPNS) technology, the firm’s FireBreak hardware product allows users to physically isolate their digital assets and systems instantly in response to hacking threats.
Partners include Brookcourt (UK), DigiFors (Germany) and Infinity (the Netherlands).
“Now, more than ever, organisations across all industries need to establish a multilayer security posture,” said Steven Brodie, chief revenue officer at Goldilock. “We’re on a mission to deliver our solution to the industries that need it most, and we’re grateful for the confidence all our partners in Europe have shown in it.”
FireBreak is triggered port by port, so disconnection and isolation can be very granular – right down to the network segment or endpoint.
After establishing R&D facilities in the West Midlands, UK in 2022, Goldilock has undergone incubation via the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre’s startups programme. The company has also received support from the UK Ministry of Defence’s security accelerator programme, among other startup programmes run by NATO and KPMG.
