Vectra AI announced Vectra AI Ascent, a new global partner program designed to build the expertise, services, and joint capabilities customers need to address increasingly complex security challenges.
Attackers are using AI to operate at machine speed, exploiting gaps across the security stack and moving through identities, legitimate credentials, cloud services, and trusted tools. As a result, organizations need greater visibility into where AI is operating across their environments and stronger security outcomes from the technologies they already have rather than simply adding more tools.
Vectra AI is expanding its global partner strategy to meet this shift by building an ecosystem that combines technology, expertise, and services to help customers identify security gaps, modernize security operations, and strengthen resilience. Ascent brings together solution providers, MSSPs, systems integrators, distributors, cloud partners, and strategic technology alliances around that opportunity.
Unlike a traditional reseller program centered primarily on transactions, Ascent is structured around four ways Vectra AI and its partners can create value together:
- Co-Sell: Win opportunities together through joint account planning, technical validation, and executive alignment.
- Co-Market: Generate demand through campaigns, events, marketing development funds, and partner-ready content.
- Co-Deliver: Expand customer value through implementation, consulting, managed services, and customer success.
- Co-Innovate: Develop integrations, services, and managed offerings that solve broader customer challenges and differentiate partners in the market.
“The market need and opportunity is very clear given the impact AI is having on both security technologies and attacker capabilities. Our technology is recognized as an industry leader in this space, and the Vectra AI Ascent Partner Program is intended to invest in our skilled partner ecosystem to help them deliver meaningful business value to customers,” said Chad Reese, senior vice president and global channel chief at Vectra AI. “Organizations are looking for trusted advisors to help them solve the broader AI security challenges that exist today. With the Ascent Program, we are bringing Vectra AI and our partner ecosystem closer together around deep expertise, value-added services, and joint innovation to help customers achieve stronger security outcomes while maximizing the technology investments they’ve already made.”
