Alpha Generation Distribution to supply AlienVault security solutions in the UK

Continuing to define itself by focusing on proactive security solutions, IT distributor Alpha Generation Distribution has announced the addition of AlienVault™ to its growing vendor portfolio.

This new partnership will make AlienVault’s Unified Security Management™ platform — which brings together five distinct capabilities in one convenient package including asset discovery, vulnerability assessment, threat detection, behavioural monitoring, and security intelligence reporting, available to UK resellers and their customers.

“We’re pleased to add Alpha Generation Distribution as a top value-added distributor,” says Justin Endres, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales at AlienVault. “With our Unified Security Management platform, AlienVault Labs Threat Intelligence, and the Open Threat Exchange—the world’s largest crowd-sourced collaborative threat exchange—we deliver on the promise of a unified, simple and affordable solution for threat detection and compliance management. Now, with the addition of Alpha Generation Distribution, we have an accelerated path to those resellers who are seeking alternatives to costly and resource-intensive SIEM solutions.”

This is an ideal addition to Alpha Generation Distribution’s security vendor portfolio, which currently includes GalaxKey, Network Instruments and Secunia. Solutions from these vendors alongside AlienVault help customers eliminate weaknesses and minimise vulnerabilities in their network security. This proactive approach greatly reduces exposure to financial and reputational risk.

“This is exactly the type of vendor we had in mind when Alpha Generation Distribution launched last year,” says Stuart Reay, Founder and CEO of Alpha Generation Distribution. “AlienVault’s products are totally scalable, from SMB right up to major enterprises, so we can approach a good mix of potential partners. 2014 will be the year of AlienVault – of that I have no doubt.”
