“Extending Liongard’s relationship with SonicWall gives us the ability to inspect and assess across the SonicWall solution portfolio,” said Michelle Accardi, CEO of Liongard, “Our integrated solution will proactively monitor SonicWall Capture Client policy configurations, guarding against human errors and changes, both on and off network. With this comprehensive protection in place, our partners gain effective threat protection, increased visibility and protection, and centralized management.”

Unified Protection and Enhanced Management in an Evolving Threat Landscape

The need for advanced cybersecurity measures has never been more pressing. SonicWall Capture Labs reports that global threat researchers recorded a staggering 2.7 billion malware attempts during the first six months of 2023, with a peak monthly volume of 576 million in June 2023, marking a 46% increase from January 2023. To address this alarming trend, SonicWall and Liongard are bolstering their current partnership to provide MSPs visibility and configuration change detection of SonicWall's Capture Client Platform.

“Investing in the best security tools in the world isn’t any help if they’re not set up correctly,” said SonicWall Global Channel Chief Michelle Ragusa-McBain. “That challenge gets exponentially larger for IT service providers managing detailed policies across many client organizations or environments. Powerful security tools like SonicWall Capture Client together with Liongard CCDR enables centralized visibility into policy configurations - and continuous monitoring of changes and human error - ensuring that customers are protected and getting their money’s worth.”

Building on their partnership, MSPs, MSSPs and enterprise IT teams can now proactively monitor policy configurations, preventing changes both on and off the network. The integrated solution offers effective threat protection, increased visibility, and centralized management, ensuring seamless cybersecurity risk mitigation for organizations of all sizes.
