Help AGNamed Tenable PlatinumPartner in the Middle East Help AG, a leading information security services, consultancy and solutions provider in the Middle East, has become a Middle East Platinum partner for Tenable®, Inc., the Cyber Exposure company. Two years after signing its reseller agreement with Tenable, Help AG has incorporated the vendor’s Cyber Exposure solutions into its security architecture, leveraging the technology within its Cyber Security Operations Centre (CSOC) to enhance the capabilities of its Managed Vulnerability Scanning (MVS) service. “We are especially proud of our unique status with Tenable which reflects the value we have been able to consistently deliver to customers through the course of our partnership,” said Stephan Berner, CEO at Help AG. “This achievement stands as an assurance to customers that when they select Help AG for their Tenable deployment, they will receive the most comprehensive and qualified support through every stage of the solution lifecycle.” The elevated Platinum status, as part of the Tenable Assure™ partner program, recognises Help AG’s value and pipeline contributions, and commitment to technical excellence through investments in Tenable’s training and certification program. Having accomplished the Tenable Certified SCCV Sales Engineer (TCSSE) and Tenable Certified Security Engineer (TCSE) technical certifications as well as the Tenable Certified Security Analyst (TCSA) sales and presales certification, Help AG is capable of delivering unmatched expertise in selecting and implementing the right solutions for customers. “Today’s corporate environments are dynamic and have no boundaries, thanks to new technology such as cloud, IoT and containers. This complexity introduces new cyber risk that simply can’t be addressed with traditional security approaches,” said John Negron, chief revenue officer, Tenable. “It’s important that we select the most reputable partners to join our Cyber Exposure mission, helping us improve the security posture of customers around the world. We’re excited to add Help AG to our roster of elite Tenable Assure partners.” Digital transformation and the rapid adoption of new technologies has led to a surge of new risks and vulnerabilities. “Continuous visibility is an absolute necessity in uncovering these vulnerabilities as without the right tools, security gaps go undiscovered, leading to their potential exploitation by attackers,” said Berner. “This is why Help AG has been leveraging Tenable.io, the world’s first Cyber Exposure platform to protect any asset on any computing platform, helping its customers address the security challenges of the modern attack surface.” Help AG has also deployed the vendor’s solutions in its CSOC to perform highly accurate internal and external scan and audits across network devices, servers, web applications, databases and other assets in on-premises and cloud environments. This enables Help AG’s Managed Security Services (MSS) team to deliver a comprehensive Managed Vulnerability Scanning (MVS) service that helps identify critical exposures in operating systems and applications across client IT environments, enabling them to protect information assets and demonstrate compliance with industry regulations.
