Armis, the asset visibility and security company, has announced its Armis Partner Experience (APEX) Manage Program, a purpose-built partner program for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Managed Detection and Response Providers (MDRs). 

The APEX Manage Program is an evolution of the APEX Program launched by Armis one year ago and aims to elevate and enrich service providers with a modern approach to building cyber investigation, detection, threat hunting, and remediation services across every asset in every environment.

Over the past year, the APEX Program has grown significantly globally. The Armis channel now services over one-hundred countries worldwide. In addition, over 2,000 sales and technical professionals have been trained and certified since inception, resulting in a 200% increase in partner-identified opportunities.

“Armis is building a powerful service provider ecosystem that can help MSPs and MDRs evolve their businesses in a highly differentiated way, allowing for them to increase efficiencies and reduce overhead,” says David Creed, Vice President of Worldwide Service Providers, Armis. 

“We aim to provide an out-of-the-box multi-tenant workbench that requires zero engineering effort, little-to-no capital investment, or personnel skill set up-leveling. This empowers MSPs and MDRs to quickly and easily offer their clients a unified and complete view of the digital attack surface of their organization, enabling end-users with improved cybersecurity postures.”

The Armis Asset Intelligence Platform is the industry’s most comprehensive asset intelligence platform providing unified asset visibility and superior security across all asset types, including IT, IoT, OT, IoMT, cloud and cellular-IoT, managed or unmanaged.
