Exclusive Networks and SentinelOne to bring nextgen endpoint security into Africa

SentinelOne, the vendor company providing endpoint security by delivering real-time protection powered by machine learning and intelligent automation, announced its expansion into Europe, Middle East, and Africa through a strategic partnership with leading security distributor Exclusive Networks. SentinelOne and Exclusive Networks will partner to initially bring Next Generation Endpoint Protection to the EMEA region.

Their joint mission is to replace the old guard of legacy antivirus software and provide organisations in these markets with a unique, standalone approach to endpoint security that combines behavioural based detection of both known and unknown threats, with automated mitigation and forensic tools to defeat attacks that employ a combination of advanced techniques within malware, exploits, or insecure scripts.

“Bringing our solution to these key European markets is a significant step toward changing the face of endpoint protection on a global scale,” said SentinelOne CEO and Co-founder Tomer Weingarten. “We are fortunate to have Exclusive Networks alongside for this effort, as they have already proven their ability for bringing disruptive cybersecurity technologies to the region.”

Barrie Desmond, COO at Exclusive Group adds, “Every so often there is a cybersecurity technology that takes a wrecking ball to established, and some may say complacent, markets by jumping to a new innovation curve and addressing unfulfilled customer needs that leave competitors behind. SentinelOne is doing away with the antivirus status quo by simplifying endpoint security in a unique way and making it fit-for-purpose in the ongoing battle against advanced threats and zero day attacks. Traditional antivirus products are continuing to fail millions of enterprise customers. We are thrilled to be partnering with a true innovator that is positioned to disrupt a market that has fallen asleep at the wheel.”

SentinelOne’s Next-Generation Endpoint Protection technology has earned praise from multiple directions; with industry analyst firm Gartner recently nominating them as a Visionary vendor in the latest Endpoint Protection Platform Magic Quadrant. Their technology and vision has already earned them $40 million of VC funding and endorsements from companies like Netflix, who have replaced their entire installed base of legacy endpoints with SentinelOne solutions.
