Giacom has announced a new distribution partnership with Huntress, giving its channel partners access to Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (Managed EDR) and other cybersecurity services, backed by 24/7 specialist support and designed to help them strengthen customer protection without adding unnecessary complexity to their own operations.
Responding to feedback from across its partner base, Giacom has added Huntress to its carefully selected cybersecurity portfolio, giving channel partners access to a new Managed EDR option designed specifically for MSPs. Giacom has a selective approach when it comes to building a marketplace that helps partners simplify procurement, reduce operational drag and deliver profitable services.
Partners will gain access to managed endpoint detection and response, identity protection, managed SIEM and security awareness training, backed by a 24/7 Security Operations Centre (SOC).
Huntress can work alongside existing antivirus tools and Microsoft Defender, helping MSPs strengthen the security services they provide to customers without requiring them to replace existing protection. Giacom partners will be able to access product trials, with eligible partners also able to apply for not-for-resale licences through Huntress’ Neighbourhood Watch programme. Giacom and Huntress will provide sales, technical and enablement support to help providers assess, adopt and sell the service.
Carl Oliver, Head of Product & Cloud Practice at Giacom, comments: “MSPs are under pressure to improve security outcomes for customers, but they also need to be able to scale those services profitably without making their own operations harder to manage.” He continues,
“Huntress stands out for its ability to deliver high-quality Managed EDR in a way that is purpose-built for MSPs, backed by around-the-clock specialist support. We have heard growing demand for Huntress from across our partner base. Its ability to work alongside existing security tools, including Microsoft Defender, gives MSPs a practical way to strengthen their services without asking customers to replace everything they already use. Combined with the trials, enablement and support available through Giacom, Huntress gives providers a straightforward route to build a stronger, more valuable cybersecurity proposition, protect existing customer relationships and pursue new opportunities for recurring growth.”
Huntress helps MSPs defend customers against threats including ransomware, phishing, account takeover, business email compromise and the misuse of legitimate remote-management tools. Its platform combines purpose-built technology with 24/7 specialist monitoring and response, helping providers identify, investigate and contain threats before they cause greater harm.
