Exclusive Networks Partners with Salt Security to Combat Growing API Security Threat

Global cybersecurity specialist Exclusive Networks becomes first PAN-EMEA value-added distributor for Salt  

PARIS, FRANCE – February 24, 2022 – Exclusive Networks, a global trusted cybersecurity specialist for digital infrastructure, has been appointed the first value-added distribution partner for Salt Security, the leading global API security company. As part of the agreement, Exclusive will have sole distribution rights for the Salt Security API Protection Platform across EMEA, with initial focus on the UK, France, DACH, Benelux, Spain, Nordics and Italy.

API attacks have become the dominant application attack vector, increasing in both volume and severity. Exclusive’s partnership with Salt Security will help combat the growing risks of API-specific cyber threats. The new partnership will focus on scaling and supporting the adoption of the Salt Security platform across EMEA, enabling channel partners to address this significant and growing market opportunity.

To support growth plans and channel strategy for Salt Security across Europe, Exclusive will leverage its expertise and successful track record in helping emerging and disruptive cybersecurity vendors penetrate EMEA markets. Exclusive will take the lead on channel development, driving partner recruitment, onboarding, and enablement. Additional go-to-market momentum will be provided through Exclusive’s DevSecOps and cloud-native technologies specialist, Nuaware, focussing on end-user engagement, creating market demand, and driving customer adoption.

“We are pleased to be working together with Exclusive Networks to enable channel partners across EMEA, as well as to leverage its recognized specialist capabilities in bringing new technology to market,” said Sunil Dutt, Director of Channel Sales, EMEA and APAC, Salt Security. “API security is now a defined category in cybersecurity, reflecting both the grave risks that API threats represent and the inadequacy of general-purpose AppSec solutions to defend against today’s sophisticated API attacks.”
