Webroot has added Cloud Harmonics to its global network of value-added distributors.
Cloud Harmonics is expanding its product portfolio with Webroot BrightCloud Threat Intelligence for Palo Alto Networks to help its network of VARs and MSPs improve their customers' ability to detect and block malicious IP threats at the network perimeter.
"Adding threat intelligence from Webroot, a Palo Alto Networks ecosystem partner, to our portfolio gives more than 400 channel partners in our network access to its cybersecurity solutions," said Anand Desai, vice president of marketing and emerging technologies at Cloud Harmonics.
"Enterprises and mid-market users can now use global threat intelligence, with behavioral analysis, to protect themselves the moment a new threat is detected anywhere in the world."
According to the Webroot 2016 Threat Brief, more than 100,000 net new malicious IPs are launched every day.
Since cybercriminals change hosts and IP addresses frequently, new threats emerge constantly and firewalls need accurate and timely updates.
BrightCloud Threat Intelligence for Palo Alto Networks integrates with Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls to detect and block malicious incoming IPs.
