Modern attacks move at machine speed. In many real-world incidents, attackers are able to move laterally and escalate access in minutes, while detection and response processes often take hours or longer. This growing speed gap has made containment a foundational requirement for cyber resilience, limiting blast radius before incidents can escalate into material business disruption.
A Partner Program Built for Profitability, Simplicity, and Trust
Zero Networks is launching updates to its Zero to Sixty partner program to enable partners to quickly deliver meaningful cyber resilience outcomes without the complexity traditionally associated with segmentation and Zero Trust initiatives. Enhancements include:
- New tiering structure that rewards investment and performance with greater margin opportunities
- Revamped discounting and deal-registration designed to reduce friction and ensure partners maintain price protection regardless of size
- Enhanced sales and technical enablement, including new training tracks and self-service resources
- Marketing development fund alignment that prioritizes strategic, high-engagement partners
- A modernized partner portal, providing improved deal registration, training and performance tracking
Accelerating Global Channel Growth
Zero Networks partner program has undergone a transformative shift over the last year–growing from 30% partner-led to 100% channel-first . This momentum spans the entire ecosystem:
- MSPs: Zero Networks achieved 45% year-over-year growth in MSP partnerships, enabling service providers to rapidly deploy identity-based containment at scale.
- Enterprise VARs and Systems Integrators: The company continues to expand traction with leading partners such as Presidio, Optiv, GuidePoint, Trace3, SHI, AHEAD, and WWT in North America, as well as TRC, Mas Orange, SCC, Saepio, DTS, Bulwarx, NTT, Madcoms, and others globally.
- Global Distribution: Zero Networks expanded its footprint with Exclusive Networks across Europe and Australia, along with SRC, Insentra, Data Group IT, and Marubeni in Japan—strengthening its ability to meet growing global demand.
“Partners are central to how we go to market,” said Adam Hofeler, VP of Channels at Zero Networks. “The Zero to Sixty program is designed to help partners move quickly while delivering real cyber resilience. By starting with containment and identity-driven segmentation, our partners help customers limit blast radius immediately, reduce operational risk, and prevent incidents from escalating into business disruptions.”
Partners increasingly turn to Zero Networks because its approach enables immediate containment using identity-driven microsegmentation, without the deployment burden or operational overhead associated with traditional segmentation solutions.
As customers shift from reactive security models to resilience-driven strategies, Zero Networks and its partner ecosystem continue to deliver a scalable, identity-first foundation for limiting blast radius and preventing business disruption.
