Yorkshire cybersecurity firm partners with German company to support expansion

A Yorkshire cybersecurity company is supporting the expansion of a German email security firm with a new partnership.

Hornetsecurity, a German email cloud security provider, is expanding its presence in the UK through a strategic partnership with Yorkshire-based cybersecurity distributor Brigantia.

The new partnership will give it access to Brigantia’s network of resellers throughout the UK and Ireland and support its plans to become the UK market leader within 12 months.

Brigantia, which is based in Ripon and has an office in London, will now work with Hornetsecurity to establish its channel distribution strategy in the UK, following its success in other markets including Spain and Germany.

Daniel Blank, COO of Hornetsecurity, commented: “We see great potential for our innovative cloud security services in the UK and are really excited about our new partnership with Brigantia, whose large reseller network will allow us to extend our footprint and partner base.

“I am sure that this collaboration will lead to high levels of customer satisfaction and we are committed to continuously expanding our already large UK team to ensure we provide the best possible service.

“Our goal is to become the leading cloud security vendor for managed service providers in the UK market within one year.”

Martin Wright, managing director of Brigantia, added: “Brigantia are very pleased to have agreed a long-term distribution agreement with Hornetsecurity.

“With more companies moving to the Microsoft 365 cloud, and more staff working from home, the number of email attacks has risen sharply.

“Hornetsecurity’s next-generation solution is the most sophisticated of its type we have seen, offering advanced protection against threats like CEO fraud and ransomware, and a whole range of features to help them comply with GDPR and other standards.”
