IRONSCALES, an AI-powered email security provider, has expanded its strategic partnership with global cybersecurity distributor Infinigate Group to the UK and Ireland. This announcement builds on an already fruitful partnership covering the Benelux region, Nordics, and Switzerland. The introduction of IRONSCALES' innovative platform to Infinigate's UK and Ireland operations is set to augment its managed services portfolio.
With its award-winning, AI-driven email security platform, IRONSCALES follows a 100% channel-centric go-to-market model, prioritising robust support for channel partners. The expansion into the UK and Ireland market signifies the continuous strengthening of their successful partnership with Infinigate and more opportunities for growth. As part of this strategy, Infinigate will distribute IRONSCALES' platform.
Russell McGuire, Chief Revenue Officer at IRONSCALES, expressed his optimism about the expansion. He said, “We are building on our successful partnership with Infinigate and extending our reach across Europe, adding an important market. The UK is a key addition for us where we see considerable opportunity to provide advanced phishing protection to MSPs, MSSPs, VARs, and System Integrators.” He also expressed high regard for Infinigate's strong cloud integration capabilities and unique go-to-market differentiation.
The news comes at a moment when cyber threats, particularly BEC and other advanced phishing attacks, are dramatically increasing due to the vulnerabilities they expose in traditional email security solutions. In certain instances, cybercriminals intentionally target human elements to gain unauthorised access to sensitive information, with phishing being one of their central strategies. According to the 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 74% of breaches involved a human element. To confront this increasing threat, IRONSCALES and Infinigate are collaboratively offering best-in-class email security for global organisations, empowering human users to be part of the cyber defence.
Lewis Dick, Alliances Director at Infinigate UK&I, stated, "The IRONSCALES platform addresses a common risk that is increasing in frequency and complexity for businesses of all sizes and segments. The launch of IRONSCALES within our UK business will add to our growing range of managed services, addressing businesses' need for cost-effective, flexible protection. Our partners stand to benefit from increased retention to SaaS systems and attachment rate to Microsoft apps, a great opportunity to secure ongoing growth.”
