The demand for new security technologies to help customers meet the rising tide of cybercrime has never been greater but as the complexity of the treat landscape increases both resellers and their customers are increasing looking for guidance and help in selecting the most appropriate solutions. John Quinn (pictured) CEO of Progress welcomed delegates to the third annual Progress Partner Conference in Alicante, Spain last week and introduced a strong line-up of vendors several of them expanding into Europe for the first time.
Specialising in European cyber security and regulatory compliance, Progress prides itself on its ability to recognise innovative new technologies and bring them to Resellers, Integrators and MSPs capable of taking them to market, supported by a distribution model designed to drive growth.
Amongst the vendors represented and presenting at the conference were Agari, Gurucul, Swimlane, Coalfire, Redseal, Nominet, Menlo Security, Link11, Cyber X Labs, Sealpath, Cofense. Zivver and Zerofox. Delegates also heard a reseller perspective on the market and the value of the Progress model of distribution from Pankaj Vekria, CEO of Securefort. Richard Neale, CTO of Progress Managed Services which the company launched just a few months ago, also discussed their 100% channel-focussed operation designed to offer solutions in such areas as vulnerability management, intrusion/incident detection and response, phishing protection and SOAR based on best in class vendor technologies.
