Value-added distributor CMS Distribution has partnered with AlienVault, provider of Unified Security Management (USM) and crowd-sourced threat intelligence solutions.

“We have been looking to partner with AlienVault for some time now as it is a strong and visionary competitor to the established players. We believe that 2015 is the perfect moment for this partnership as it fits our portfolio expansion plan and the increasing market demand”, said Justin Griffiths, Group Director Software Solutions at CMS Distribution.

Because of an evolving cyber threat landscape and security and compliance breaches with strong implications for the business environment, last year the security information and event management (SIEM) market was the fastest-growing security sub segment.

“CMS Distribution, with its over 3,000 resellers, represents a cogent route to increase sales of the AlienVault Unified Security Management platform into the UK and Ireland market due to its strong position within the open source space, already representing vendors such as Red Hat, SUSE and EnterpriseDB”, added Justin Griffiths.

Moreover, the company has teams of dedicated product managers and pre-sales engineers with deep experience of the vendor spaces, including systems and security management, together with contacts within CMS Distribution reseller base who are specifically interested in technologies and solutions within this area.

“CMS is a very well respected distributor with a strong reputation for bringing new products to market while offering resellers innovative sales and marketing support and we are fortunate to have them join our team of partners,” said Justin Endres, SVP of Worldwide Sales. “With our Unified Security Management platform, AlienVault Labs Threat Intelligence and the Open Threat Exchange we deliver on the promise of a unified, simple and affordable solution for threat detection and compliance management. Now, with the addition of CMS Distribution, we have an accelerated path to those resellers who are seeking alternatives to costly and resource-intensive SIEM solutions.”
