Plurilock Security Solutions has launched its new Global Sales Channel Partner Program with nine partners that now can provide its invisible identity assurance offering to customers globally.

The launch follows the closing of $3 million in seed investment for the company. Its offering monitors user behavior on desktop and laptop computers in real-time to ensure that the current user is authorized.

Ian Paterson, Plurilock’s CEO, tells Channel Partners his company has worked with partners in the past, and “we are now formalizing our channel sales program to better support partners with dedicated programs, resources and executive support.”

“When we think about what’s important for our customers, it’s really about delivering exceptional customer experiences, creating value for our customers and realizing sustainable, profitable growth,” he said. “To that end, customers are looking to reduce the number of vendors they deal with and consolidate down the number of master service agreements they manage. We’re able to better serve our customers by giving them the freedom to procure software from vendors they already work with. Likewise for the channel, we’re able to provide more value to our partners by allowing them to integrate and bundle our unique behavioral artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities inside their existing offerings for a true win-win.”

Plurilock’s new sales channel partners include such companies as Carahsoft, Siltek, Paramount Computer Systems (PCS) and Assurity Systems. Through these and other partners, Plurilock now is readily available in the Middle East, Europe and Asia Pacific, in addition to the Americas.

“Plurilock’s simple identity-assurance technology provides the real-time user authentication our customers need for security and compliance with zero impact on the user experience,” said Michael Shrader, Carahsoft’s vice president of intelligence and innovative solutions. “This is a great opportunity for us to deliver this affordable, dependable and efficient cybersecurity solution to our customers and reseller partners.”

Plurilock’s BioTracker behavioral biometrics and AI identity-assurance solution provide continuous user authentication to thwart insider threats, privileged access compromises, stolen credentials, user carelessness and more, reducing time to response for breach attempts from more than 200 days to less than 30 seconds, according to the company.

“Plurilock’s channel program is perfect for resellers looking to bring new innovative capabilities to their customers, managed providers (MSP/MSSP) who need to extend their offering with AI capabilities, and technology partners looking to integrate behavioral AI capabilities via 100 percent API addressable platform,” Paterson said. “Partnering with Plurilock not only delivers the premium solutions buyers are clamoring for, but also represents a greenfield opportunity to dominate your region early on with exclusive continuous authentication technology. New partners get access to a set of selling tools and programs that offer lucrative margins and are fully supported from all levels from junior analyst to C-Suite.”

Plurilock has landed additional clients in the financial services and energy sectors, including a critical infrastructure power plant.
