Portland Europe and Malwarebytes Announce Partnership to Provide MSPs with best in class 24/7 security

Portland Europe to offer the Malwarebytes Business suite of solutions to help MSPs detect threats earlier and respond faster

Heemstede, Netherlands – 18 April 2023 – Today, software distributor and trusted advisor for MSPs, Portland Europe, announced a new partnership with Malwarebytes, a global leader in real-time cyber protection.

This new partnership will allow MSPs in the Benelux region, to bolster their clients’ cybersecurity capabilities by leveraging the Malwarebytes cloud-based platform to provide streamlined, effective endpoint protection (EP), incident response (IR) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) in one centralized management portal. Unlike complicated products designed for companies with an army of security analysts, Malwarebytes solutions are easy to deploy and use right out-of-the-box without complex set-up and maintenance.  

“In order to fully protect your customers as an MSP, you need someone who is looking over your shoulder 24/7,” said George Van Brugge, owner and founder of Portland. “By using EDR and MDR services, you give your customers the guarantee that someone is also watching outside office hours and during holidays. On the other hand, you modernize your services menu to also become more profitable. Malwarebytes offers this solution in an easy, clear and affordable way. Perfect for our customers and other MSPs in the Benelux.”

Malwarebytes provides its partners with a powerful and affordable security management platform that puts maximum control in the hands of security teams. With additional threat prevention modules and services such as DNS filtering and managed detection and response (MDR), partners can offer the right product or service to each customer, tailored to their specific needs. The Malwarebytes platform enables streamlined operations with centralized management of customer endpoints, next-generation threat intelligence and seamless integrations.

“We have a partner mindset across all regions and an unwavering commitment to help both new and existing partners keep their customers safe while catapulting their business to new heights,” said Domynique Coutant, Team Leader, MSP Channel Development EMEA & APAC, at Malwarebytes. “We understand that the channel requires streamlined and simplified solutions to keep pace with skyrocketing costs and the complexities of managing multiple solutions. Our focus for the Malwarebytes platform is to make it easy to buy, deploy, use and manage. This fits perfectly with the vision of Portland Europe to help MSPs work more efficient, productive and profitable, which is why we think Portland Europe is the right partner for us.”
