Veracode has launched its enhanced Veracode® Velocity™ Partner Programme. The programme enables new collaboration opportunities, empowering partners with innovative and comprehensive application and cloud risk management solutions across North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. The expanded programme introduces a simplified approach to working with resellers and value-added distributors.

Chris Peterson, Vice President of Global Channels at Veracode, emphasised the importance of the new programme, saying, "The software security industry is experiencing a massive shift, with the explosion of AI accelerating global efforts to secure software. This is changing the way many partners do business as they require even more advanced industry-wide technical capabilities. With the launch of our enhanced global partner programme, we are setting a new standard for collaboration in the software security industry.”

Through the Velocity™ programme, partners can more easily support their customers to build and scale secure software from code to cloud with the Veracode application risk management platform. Partners can significantly enhance their security service offerings with AI-powered remediation, actionable visibility of exploitable flaws, and easy onboarding and integration with their DevSecOps tech stack. The company’s recent acquisition of Longbow Security also broadens Veracode’s market reach through its ecosystem of strategic security providers.

The Veracode® Velocity™ Partner Programme has a multi-tiered structure tailored to various levels of engagement and investment. Benefits include early access to Veracode products, invitations to Veracode Technical Summits and Partner Technical Advisory Council membership, participation in thought leadership programmes, revenue acceleration programmes, and marketing investment.

As part of the Velocity™ programme, Veracode has also unveiled its enhanced Partner Technical Certification Programme. This initiative provides partners with technical certification across four progressive levels, retires any requirement for Continuing Professional Education, and builds visibility of expertise with Credly badges. These new certifications will help drive partners’ services and sales.

Game-changing impact

Veracode's new partner programme is now active, with several partners already experiencing the benefits of enhanced collaboration and support.

Traci Byrne, Head of Global Security Strategy & GTM at World Wide Technology said, "Veracode's new partner programme transforms the way we engage with security solutions. The structured tiers and clear incentives allow us to align our investments directly with outcomes, benefiting both our clients and our business strategy. This programme not only supports our growth but also enhances our ability to deliver comprehensive security solutions to customers more effectively."

"Our team is very excited about the enhancements to Veracode's Partner Programme,” said Michelle Jones, Senior Manager of Strategic Alliances at GuidePoint Security. “The clarity and simplicity of the programme allows us to focus more on delivering value and less on navigating complexities. Through our strategic partnership, we can better serve our customers and drive significant advancements in application risk management."

"The launch of Veracode's enhanced Velocity™ Partner Programme marks a pivotal evolution in our collaboration," said Ahmed Soltan, Managing Director at Shifra. "The programme’s multi-tiered structure and emphasis on strategic partnerships empower us to elevate our service offerings and achieve greater market penetration."

Peterson closed, “The enhanced programme directly addresses the growing needs of our partners, providing them with a clear path to success. Our goal is always to empower partners to grow their businesses while jointly delivering superior security solutions to our customers worldwide."
