Networks Unlimited launches new MSSP partnership with SentinelOne

Networks Unlimited Africa and its vendor partner , SentinelOne , have launched a new partner programme that brings SentinelOne ’ s endpoint security to managed security services providers ( MSSPs ) of all sizes and , in particular , is geared to help small businesses become more established in this particular cybersecurity arena .

SentinelOne helps organisations to prevent , detect , respond to and remediate endpoint threats using Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) and Machine Learning , and Value Added Distributor , Networks Unlimited , delivers its endpoint security products throughout Africa .
Stefan van de Giessen , General Manager : Cybersecurity at Networks Unlimited Africa , said : “ Networks Unlimited is proud to introduce the Sentinel One Evolve Partner Programme , which is designed to help MSSPs to grow their SentinelOne business and increase profitability , while also providing Value Added benefits and support . The way that the programme has been structured is particularly beneficial to small , medium and micro enterprises ( SMMEs ) and is , in fact , a first of its kind in Africa .
“ There has been a fair amount of investment into the MSSP market over the
past year , and SentinelOne has realised the need to help smaller companies enter this arena more easily . And so , for example , instead of having to buy a minimum of 100 licences , which is likely to be out of an SMME ’ s reach , SentinelOne does not require a minimum licence number .”
