Enables MSSPs to provide value-added proactive monitoring of corporate identities that are being shared on the dark web provides
Basingstoke, 14 February 2024 – TD SYNNEX (NYSE: SNX) has formed an alliance with specialist ISV, Crossword Cybersecurity, that will give partners access to Trillion, the company’s advanced dark web data mining platform for businesses, for the first time.
Ideal for managed security services providers (MSSPs), Trillion proactively scans for customers’ employee usernames and passwords that are being shared on the dark web. It also provides information on where and how the information was sourced.
Full enablement and support on the solution will be provided for Trillion by TD SYNNEX’s specialist security practice in collaboration with Crossword Cybersecurity’s own UK-based team. Channel programmes for both managed services providers and reseller partners are available for Trillion, which becomes part of a wide-ranging portfolio of security solutions and services available through the TD SYNNEX security practice.
Alison Nixon, director, security, UK, TD SYNNEX, said: “The dark web has become a distinct and growing threat to organisations and Trillion is a valuable addition to our expanding security portfolio. It enables MSPs and partners to offer monitoring of the dark web and thus help their customers to be aware that information is out there that could be used to break their own or their customers’ network and data protection.”
The addition of Trillion makes TD SYNNEX even better-placed to support partners in growing and developing their cybersecurity business, she added.
“The wide-ranging portfolio of best-of-breed cybersecurity solutions and services – from leading and specialist vendors, developers and service providers – that TD SYNNEX now offers, enables partners to take a comprehensive cybersecurity and data protection proposition to their customers. Whether they are already established as an MSSP, or just starting to build their own practice, we can provide the expertise, enablement and support they need to grow and develop their business.”
This new addition is, in part, a response to partner feedback. “Within the TD SYNNEX security practice, we are acutely aware of the growing threat that the dark web poses and in recent times it’s come up more often in conversations with partners. If data is out there on the dark web, that’s just as dangerous for small as well as large organisations and, in addition to being extremely effective, Trillion is also very scalable and affordable. We see this as an opportunity for MSSPs and partners addressing every sector of the market to add value for their customers by keeping them one step ahead.”
Commenting on behalf of Crossword Cybersecurity, Stuart Jubb, Group Managing Director, stated: “Trillion has been designed to provide organisations with the pro-active protection from the potential threats that exposure of information on the dark web can bring. Our alliance with TD SYNNEX will allow us to reach out to partners and enable more organisations to benefit from knowing exactly what information from their files has found its way onto the dark web.”
Trillion continuously tracks, correlates and analyses billions of stolen usernames and passwords, hunting for digital identities that could belong to organisations or their customers.
