Nearly 100% of Forescout customer business is transacted through partners, making continued investment in partner enablement, technical expertise, and specialization central to the company’s channel-first strategy. Forescout has built a highly skilled global partner community equipped to help organizations identify all connected assets, segment networks to limit blast radius while controlling lateral movement, and secure increasingly complex cyber-physical environments.
In May, Forescout launched Mission: Possible, the largest investment in channel engagement in the company’s history, targeting 90 cities across more than 40 countries, with content delivered in 22 languages. To date, more than 1,300 participants have attended an event, and by the end of September, the program is expected to have engaged more than 2,000 partner professionals worldwide. Through hands-on discussions, technical education, and local engagement opportunities, Mission: Possible helps partners build the expertise needed to support customers navigating frontier AI risks and increasingly complex cyber-physical environments.
As part of its continued investment in partner growth, Forescout is recognizing the following organizations for achieving new levels within the Envision Partner Program:

“Across our global partner ecosystem, we’re continually raising the bar for technical capability, certifications, customer success, and business performance,” said David Creed, Vice President of Worldwide Channel Sales at Forescout. “We’re proud to recognize these partners who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to customer success, technical excellence, partner enablement, and business growth while helping organizations meaningfully reduce cyber risk across converged IT, OT, IoT and IoMT environments.”
“Trace3 is at its best when we can pair deep technical expertise with the right technology and a partner that is committed to doing the work alongside us,” said Milo Sanchez, Senior Practice Director, Trace3. “Forescout’s enablement, technical investment, and collaborative approach have helped us better support our clients and expand the possibilities of our partnership. We’re proud to be recognized for advancing within the Envision Partner Program and look forward to what we can achieve together.”
The Forescout Channel program has continued to earn industry recognition, including placement on CRN’s 20 Coolest Network Security Companies list, recognition of David Creed in the CRN Channel Chiefs list, recognition of Olly Carter in the CRN Channel Leaders EMEA list, and inclusion of the Envision Partner Program in the CRN Partner Program Guide.
As organizations face growing challenges securing increasingly complex cyber-physical environments, partners are playing a critical role in helping customers achieve measurable outcomes. Organizations using Forescout have reported discovering 50% more unknown IoT devices, reducing median breach containment time by 98.7%, and cutting the average time required to identify unknown, unmanaged, and unauthorized assets from 41 hours to six minutes. These outcomes help organizations improve visibility, accelerate response, and strengthen cyber resilience.
