The vendor plans to bundle its new phishing simulation and end user education platform together with its flagship dark web monitoring service, and offer both at prices it says are significantly below what many MSPs currently pay for dark web protection alone.

Called Azure Sentinel and Microsoft Threat Experts, the new offerings are designed to help overwhelmed IT departments and MSSPs cope with a continually shifting threat landscape.

Speakers and sponsors at the conference, which took place last week in Orange County, Calif., shared advice for capitalizing on rising demand for cybersecurity help and industry-specific services.

The new, subscription-priced offering is designed to help MSPs drive adoption of managed security services.

Though its acquisition spree isn’t over, the BDR, failover, migration, and now security vendor plans to make growth through partner engagement, recruitment, and cross-selling bigger priorities this year, according to channel exec Tim Puccio (pictured).

And that word is “synergy.” Joining forces will allow the two companies to deliver a complementary stack of data protection technologies to an equally complementary set of channel partners.

In addition to combining Webroot’s security portfolio with its own BDR and high availability products, the $618.5 million deals also merges Webroot’s extensive base of MSP partners with Carbonite’s VAR-heavy channel.
