Qualys Unveils Enhanced Partner Program with More Benefits, Protection

Qualys has launched an enhanced channel and integration partner program to help partners realize value when leveraging its cloud platform.

The enhanced Qualys partner program improves structured benefit and protection programs for partners who identify new opportunities. In addition, it offers technical certifications and opportunities to deliver value through professional and consulting services.

“The enhancement of this program coincides with a time where bad actors are growing increasingly sophisticated, and organizations are facing an explosive number of vulnerabilities,” she said. “Organizations are desperate for the ability to prevent possible exploitation and keep up in today’s increasingly tumultuous threat landscape. Qualys understands this need and is further engaging with highly qualified partners to arm customers with our game-changing Qualys Cloud Platform, which includes access to more than 20 IT, security and compliance apps, accompanied by the best possible support, tools and resources.”

The new additions to the program work to further Qualys’ investment into the partner ecosystem, Swanson said.

Variety of Partners Welcome

Qualys welcomes a variety of partner types to enable access to a broad set of companies and markets, Swanson said. Partners include MSSPs, MSPs, VARs, distribution partners and vendors throughout the cybersecurity space.

“Partner input is at the core of the new program design, and will continue to drive further enhancements and evolution planned for the remainder of the year, into 2023 and beyond,” she said. “We value partner input as it ensures and guides our ability to deliver the resources needed for success.”

Qualys is committed to creating and distributing meaningful integrations with technology partners to reduce risk and accelerate the path to continuous security for enterprises,” Swanson said.

“The competitive advantage gained is through the ability to provide clients and customers of all sizes with access to enterprise-grade security controls,” she said. “With the power of the Qualys Cloud Platform, implementing and executing security measures will far exceed the industry norm.”

Partners can also increase their security expertise and develop service offerings that differentiate them, Swanson said. In addition, they can accelerate time to value for their customers.
