WALLIX partners with Prianto to boost UK cybersecurity growth
European cybersecurity software publisher WALLIX has announced a new strategic partnership with Prianto, one of the UK's fastest-growing software distributors, underlining the company's expansion strategy in the UK. The collaboration aims to leverage Prianto's expertise in specialised software distribution to amplify WALLIX's growth in this crucial region and champion WALLIX's global Channel strategy.
The UK is highlighted as a significant area where organisations are in dire need of robust solutions tackling cybersecurity challenges, primarily concerning identity and access management. The myriad of sectors from which these organisations hail are increasingly targeted by sophisticated cyberattacks. Embedding its products across IT and Operational Technology (OT) environments, WALLIX offers an effective barrier against these threats through a network of resellers and distributors, with Prianto now serving as an important ally in this cause.
Yuri Pasea, CEO of Prianto Distribution UK, stated the shared commitment of the two companies to offering innovative solutions to system integrators, resellers, and Managed Service Providers (MSPs). He said: “At Prianto, we've always been dedicated to providing our resellers, system integrators, and MSPs with innovative solutions. WALLIX's focus on securing and managing identity access makes for the perfect partnership in a market which has been expanding significantly.”
A mutual enthusiasm is echoed by Eric Gatrio, CRO at WALLIX, who underlined the importance of the UK market in WALLIX's global expansion plans and the expected benefits from being closer to local businesses and organisations. He revealed: "We are delighted to start working with Prianto to develop WALLIX activities in the UK, as we are engaged to deploy our solutions on a global scale and UK is, for us, a key region. This partnership will allow us to be closer to local businesses and organisations from all sectors."
To ensure robust cybersecurity measures against increasingly sophisticated threats, digital identity and access security for IT and OT environments is now a critical area of concern. WALLIX, active in 90 countries, has been aiding businesses of all sizes worldwide for over 20 years, distributed via a network of more than 300 resellers. This recent union with Prianto is a reflection of WALLIX's ongoing commitment to safeguarding organisations against cyber threats and its ambition to keep growing globally.
