The Gately Report: Arctic Wolf Partners Getting New Channel Program Benefits This Summer

Arctic Wolf partners will get new channel program benefits this summer to create more customer demand.

That’s according to Will Briggs, Arctic Wolf’s senior vice president of global channels. Arctic Wolf serves more than 3,000 customers that range from large enterprises to SMBs. It works with more than 1,100 channel partners worldwide.

“We will have new partner program benefits in fiscal year 2024, which starts May 1,” Briggs said. “I can’t talk about those yet. But I want to have, the Arctic Wolf channel team wants to have, and the Arctic Wolf organization wants to have the best partner program in the world. And I think we’ve done a pretty good job at that today.

“There will be a few new launches going into fiscal year 2024 (starting May 1) from a go-to-market (GTM) perspective that ultimately will help our partners create more demand and for us to help grow together,” he added. “… We have a few internal meetings during those first couple of weeks, and then our big partner week is the second week of June — and it has our partner webinar. That’s our kickoff to fiscal year 2024 with out partner community.”

Arctic Wolf Threat Labs Report

Arctic Wolf partners might want to look at the recently released annual Arctic Wolf Labs Threat Report. It highlights the heavy toll of business email compromise (BEC), a decline in ransomware cases and other trends in Arctic Wolf’s incident response (IR) cases.

The report reveals a year of turbulence within the threat actor community as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted the operations of top ransomware groups. It also shows a lack of multifactor authentication (MFA) drove BEC attacks. In addition, the long tail of Log4Shell and ProxyShell continues to be exploited en masse more than a year after their initial disclosure.
