Skyhawk Security has launched a new partner program aimed at helping MSSPs, VARs, and consultants meet the growing demand for cloud-native security solutions that reduce alert fatigue and deliver measurable business outcomes. The global initiative is designed to empower partners to scale their services and profitability by offering Skyhawk’s preemptive cloud threat detection and response (CDR) platform, anchored by its AI-powered Autonomous Purple Team.

Purpose-Built for Partner Growth

The program supports multiple partner profiles, referral partners, VARs, and MSSPs, allowing each to engage on their terms. Jennifer Duman, Channel Director at Skyhawk, emphasized the MSSP advantage:

“Skyhawk revolutionizes cloud security with preemptive security built on our Continuous Autonomous Purple Team. The platform identifies weaponized threats and simulates them against cloud threat detection and response (CDR) to help organizations sort through the overwhelming alerts and prevent cloud incidents from becoming breaches. For MSSPs, their SOC team will have greater operational efficiency, allowing them to service more or larger clients without increasing headcount.”

From Alert Fatigue to Business Alignment

A core differentiator is Skyhawk’s Autonomous Purple Team, which actively simulates real-world attacker behavior to validate cloud exposures before they escalate.

“For MSSPs, their SOC team will have an ongoing, updated view of newly introduced weaponized risks to ensure their clients are always under protective assessment while reducing false positives and providing greater operational efficiency,” Duman said.

“For VARs, by bringing this cutting-edge technology to their clients, they're introducing a new solution to address their clients' alert fatigue and SOC resource constraints while providing compensating controls and reducing MTTD and MTTR to seconds.”

To meet growing interest across North America and LATAM, Skyhawk is investing in localized support. “We have a multi-lingual go-to-market team based in North America, servicing both North America and LATAM. We're fortunate to all live in hub cities and are happy to travel to support our partners in person for enablement, events, and prospect and customer meetings.”

Driving Measurable Impact for End Customers

The program’s proactive approach is already yielding results. Duman pointed to recent customer outcomes: “In a recent webinar, the CISO of our client IBEX shared how our Continuous Autonomous Purple Team saved them significant time by clearly identifying which misconfigurations would lead to actual attacks. They’ve gone from 60,000 alerts per month to just 50 actionable ones. The team now has a centralized view of cloud misconfigurations, improved attack surface visibility, and AI-based pen testing to assess potential vectors. It’s enabled their security team to be more proactive and reclaim hours in their day.”
