Johannesburg-based distributor NetXatics has been signed as a Rapid7 partner for South Africa and the rest of the sub-Saharan Africa market.

Under the partnership agreement with Rapid7, NetXactics will distribute and support Rapid7’s real-time security vulnerability management and analytics solutions, which offer key insights into threat and risk exposure, across sub-Saharan Africa.

The Boston-based Rapid7 focuses squarely on understanding the behaviour of attackers, and bringing insight and analytics to data security threats. This helps organisations to reduce their exposure to risk.

Cornel Swart, CEO of NetXactics, said Rapid7’s security approach is extremely strategic. “Most vendors in this space place a huge emphasis on the discovery of security threats, but lack the expertise to help customers to prioritise threats and identify the most effective actions to reduce risk,” he said.

Swart added that for NetXactics, the most important factor when taking on a new product is the vendor’s strategy for Africa. “Rapid7 is dedicated to business in Africa and has shown a solid commitment to our market.”

“NetXactics has demonstrated a track record of bringing innovative solutions to market and also has a reputation for business excellence,” said Richard Moseley, senior vice president of Sales at Rapid7. “We look forward to working with them to help their customers get the security data and analytics they need to improve their overall security posture.”
