Extends strategic partnership with Ignition Technology to fight modern cyber threats in Northern European markets
ExtraHop®, a leader in modern network detection and response (NDR), today announced its expansion into the Nordics and Benelux markets. This strategic move strengthens the company’s European footprint on the heels of a period of significant enterprise growth.
Following a strong 2024, in which ExtraHop more than doubled its sales to Global 2000 customers in EMEA, the company is bringing its proven momentum to two of the continent’s most dynamic markets housing global enterprise headquarters and a thriving ecosystem of world-class tech innovators.
To introduce its industry-leading NDR platform to the Nordics and Benelux regions, ExtraHop is extending its distribution agreement with Ignition Technology, a specialist in SaaS-based cybersecurity. Building upon the partnership’s success in the UK and France, the expansion will address growing demand in northern and western Europe, helping customers stay ahead of emerging threats with complete network visibility and context.
“ExtraHop’s continued success across Europe is proof of the undeniable power of our modern NDR platform,” said Andy Philpott, VP, EMEA, ExtraHop. “In the Benelux and Nordics regions, major global enterprises are being targeted by stealthy threats that bypass traditional defenses and move laterally to inflict maximum damage – a challenge that can only be met with the unrivaled visibility ExtraHop offers. With the on-the-ground support and expertise of partners like Ignition Technology, we are well positioned to help security teams in the Benelux and Nordics gain the unparalleled network insights needed to eliminate these sophisticated threats from their network traffic.”
As the attack surface expands and threat actors become more sophisticated, ExtraHop detects and stops advanced, disguised tactics like lateral movement and living off the land attacks. By unifying NDR, network performance management (NPM), intrusion detection (IDS), and forensics in a single, comprehensive platform, ExtraHop provides complete visibility and a powerful defense, backed by industry-leading decryption capabilities and protocol fluency. Recognized as a Leader by Forrester, Gartner, IDC, and GigaOm, ExtraHop delivers the unparalleled insights needed to ensure no threat goes unnoticed.
ExtraHop strengthens Ignition’s portfolio with its robust integration ecosystem, which includes existing partners CrowdStrike. This collaboration brings together industry-leading endpoint, network, and threat intelligence empowering security teams with correlated insights to enhance visibility and accelerate investigations.
