Are you well-suited to become a Ridgeback Distribution Partner?
Ridgeback Network Defense enables partners to deliver a fundamentally different security outcome: deny, deceive, and disrupt adversaries before damage occurs. Ridgeback imposes cost on attackers, collapses reconnaissance, and neutralizes lateral movement, without adding alert noise or operational burden.
For distributors and VARs, Ridgeback represents a high-margin, low-friction way to modernize customer security stacks and differentiate in a crowded detect-and-respond market, speed sales and earn renewals more confidently.
Ridgeback serves essential institutions with inherently challenging systems.
