SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 20, 2016) - Vectra® Networks, Inc., the leader in automated threat management, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Vectra to its 2016 'Emerging Vendors' list. This annual list recognizes recently founded, up-and-coming technology suppliers who are shaping the future of the IT channel through unique technological innovations.

"These tech suppliers are quickly making their mark on the industry and are the ones solution providers should watch in 2016."

"Vectra Networks is proud to be working with channel partners that actively engage with customers to ensure that they are well prepared to detect and respond to the latest cybersecurity threats," said Rick Geehan, vice president of North America sales at Vectra.
