"Partner-First" DDoS Strategy Update

Corero Network Security plc (AIM: CNS), a leading provider of real-time, high-performance, automatic Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) defense solutions, provides the following update on its "partner-first" go-to-market strategy with the announcement of several new partnerships in APAC, Latin America and the Caribbean, alongside ongoing enhancements to Corero's Partner Portal.

Building on the strong successful foundations established in 2020 with resale partners and distributors such as Kite, Telent, Axians Germany, enfoPoint, ECI Networks and Walker and Associates, Inc., Corero is pleased to announce it has added several new strategic partnerships with Datacipher and CDM in APAC, and CLA Direct in Latin America and the Caribbean.

With the continued rise in DDoS attacks during 2020 and 2021, these resale partners and distributors recognise that many of their customers within the Service and Hosting Provider space, along with Gaming, Financial Services and SaaS-based customers were in need of updating their network security requirements. Corero, with its leading-edge DDoS solution, will enable them to detect and mitigate a DDoS attack within seconds, not minutes, as some of their current solutions provide.

Lionel Chmilewsky, Corero's CEO, said:

"I am extremely pleased to see the continued traction within our existing partner community in 2020 and I only see that growing as we continue to add partners in new regions and markets in 2021. We are fully committed to increasing and supporting our sales and marketing initiatives to amplify global expansion via the channel."
