Secunia signs VAR security deal with SBL

Secunia has signed a value added reseller agreement with cyber security specialist SBL. The agreement covers the vulnerability management and security patching products from the Secunia portfolio.

In addition, VIM, Secunia’s vulnerability management solution, will be included in SBL’s DOBUS platform. Secunia products will be sold and implemented by SBL security specialists into central government, defence and military sectors, as well as SMB and enterprise organisations.

The Secunia product set provides SBL with a solution that integrates into its security services, including the DOBUS platform that delivers critical patches and updates to highly secure “closed network” environments.

SBL will work in partnership with Secunia to deliver intelligence to its DOBUS customers, allowing them to prioritise updating their users. Scott Cattaneo, commercial manager at SBL, said: “Secunia fitted our requirement for an exciting technology proficient in providing global intelligence and context aware solutions commensurate with the profound changes within the cyber security threat landscape.
