TrapX Announces Global Partner Program

SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Aug 28, 2014) -  TrapX Security, provider of the fastest growing sensor-based HoneyGrid™ in the world, today announced a partner program to speed worldwide availability of its products. The program offers several options for partners to complement their products and services with TrapX technology, protecting their customers, deepening customer relationships, and gaining new revenue opportunities from addressing remediation, compliance reporting, and professional services.

The new program will help TrapX meet enterprises' growing demand for protection against zero-day malware and APTs. CSOs are scrambling to enhance their defense capabilities with security technologies from innovative leaders such as TrapX because recent cybersecurity attacks on Target, Michaels, eBay and others, have revealed that cybercriminals -- whether individuals, crime syndicates, or nation-state actors -- can readily bypass the perimeter security solutions on the market today.

"Our partners have the instant reach and scalability to bring our disruptive security capabilities to market and support our mutual customers," says Mark Cashman, vice president of channel sales at TrapX. "Our go-to-market strategy is built around the channel and we know our partners are best able to support our mutual customers."

With the introduction of the TrapX Security Operation Center (TSOC) available on Google Cloud Platform, partners can now deploy entire secure SOCs and sensors in a matter of hours as opposed to days, at a fraction of the cost of legacy on-premise solutions. TrapX built its robust SOC solution on Google Cloud Platform to bring an order of magnitude increase in cost and time savings, and bring advanced capabilities to enterprises that demand integrated security operations across their organizations.

Providing customers with an integrated threat intelligence picture of real-time events is critical considering the velocity of modern attacks.

Program Details

The new partner program complements existing TrapX channel technology, sales and fulfillment processes. TrapX offers three ways to partner. As a managed security service provider (MSSP), a partner can offer TrapX HoneyGrid capabilities under a monthly subscription model. As a VAR, it can resell TrapX Adaptive Defense™ technologies. A company can also act as a strategic technology partner, integrating TrapX technologies with complementary products or services.

TrapX will conduct its own marketing and sales activities, turning leads over to partners after qualifying them on business need, sponsorship, and funding. TrapX offers partners market development funds to drive qualified opportunities forward. The company will invest in both sales and product training, providing partners support through joint road shows, lunch and learns, and a partner portal with a configuration tool, sales guides, technical resources, deal registration and other material.
