The following companies now leverage the Guardian Partner Program to deliver cloud security solutions:

Guardian Partner Program: Here's What You Need to Know
The Guardian Partner Program enables MSPs, technology resellers and other channel partners to deliver Armor cloud security solutions. It also offers access to Armor marketing, sales and technical support, enabling partners to capitalize on the rising demand for cloud security.
Guardian partners can advise, migrate and manage customer applications in the cloud, Drake said. As such, Guardian partners can simultaneously help customers reduce cloud security and compliance risks.
The Guardian Partner Program has helped Armor increase its channel revenue by 400 percent over the past 12 months, Drake stated. Meanwhile, Armor continues to explore ways to further extend its channel reach, which is reflected in some of the company's recent moves.
Armor last month integrated the Amazon GuardDuty intelligent threat detection solution into its Spartan threat detection and response platform. The integration now empowers Spartan users with continuous threat hunting, virtual chief information security officer (CISO) and other intelligent threat detection capabilities, according to a prepared statement.
Moreover, Armor last month announced a partnership with Cloudticity, an MSP for the healthcare and medical sector. The partnership enables Cloudticity to deliver cloud security protection for organizations whose workloads reside in AWS and are required to meet HIPAA and HITRUST compliance standards.
Armor delivers continuous security monitoring, protection, response and compliance for cloud workloads and hybrid IT. In addition, Armor helps organizations return 286 percent on their cloud security investments, the company indicated.
