March 22, 2024 | 3 MINS READ

Sydney, Australia - March 22, 2024 - Tech Data, a TD SYNNEX company, announced its partnership with eSentire, a global cybersecurity leader, further expanding its security solutions portfolio in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ). Through this partnership, Tech Data will further address the growing demand from organisations seeking to fortify their assets and enhance their cybersecurity resilience.

eSentire’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service combines its open Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platform technology, 24/7 threat hunting, and proven security operations leadership, as an all-in-one solution to help organizations anticipate, withstand and recover from cyberattacks across their entire attack surface, whether on-premises or in the cloud. Staffed with elite threat hunters and experienced cyber analysts, their global SOCs are focussed on responding to high priority security events by driving human-led threat investigations to hunt, contain and respond to known and unknown threats.

For Tech Data’s Resellers, eSentire offers a comprehensive “24/7 Security Operations Centre-as-a-Service” (SOCaaS) solution, delivering numerous benefits to organisations including a remarkable 99% reduction in threat detection and containment times compared to global averages, robust cybersecurity compliance as well as extensive response capabilities averaging 35 seconds to respond, and 15 minutes mean time to contain. eSentire acts as an extension of their customers' teams, delivering risk reduction at a fraction of the cost of setting up their own SOC.

Commenting on the development, Andy Berry, Vice President and Country General Manager, Tech Data ANZ said “the Australia cybersecurity market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.44% to reach $21 billion by 20281, with the incident response services market poised to expand. Through our partnership with eSentire, we have enhanced our managed cybersecurity services that will enable our partners to ensure that their customers have the right solutions in place to effectively respond and recover from cyber threats.”

“eSentire is honoured to be working alongside Tech Data, to provide their partners with our 24/7, all-in-one security solutions that are proven, easy to consume, and help ensure that their end-customers are protected from business-disrupting cyberattacks," said Bob Layton, eSentire Chief Channel Officer.
