RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LookingGlass™ Cyber Solutions, a leader in threat intelligence-driven security, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has given LookingGlass a 5-Star rating in its 2017 Partner Program Guide. This annual guide is the definitive listing of partner programs from technology vendors that provide products and services through the IT channel. The 5-Star Partner Program Guide rating recognizes an elite subset of companies that offer solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs.

To determine the 2017 5-Star ratings, The Channel Company’s research team assessed each vendor’s partner program based on investments in program offerings, partner profitability, partner training, education and support, marketing programs and resources, sales support and communication.

The LookingGlass Cyber Guardian Network was designed to offer security solution providers the ability to partner with LookingGlass through one integrated program. The program provides unparalleled investment protection, sales enablement and responsiveness while ensuring that partners have the best tools possible to execute sales and differentiate themselves in advanced cybersecurity offerings.

LookingGlass continues to improve their partner program, most recently expanding it to include Managed Security Services Providers (MSSPs), as well as announcing the launch of their Cyber Guardian Network Partner Portal. The portal is an easy-to-use, protected resource that grants LookingGlass partners round-the-clock access to sales and technical enablement with the ultimate goal of increasing partner productivity and expanding their business.

“We are proud to receive The Channel Company 5 Star rating for our Cyber Guardian Network partner program,” said Pete Agresta, CRO, LookingGlass Cyber Solutions. “This designation validates our commitment to partner success in the delivery of LookingGlass threat-driven products and services.”

“For solution providers, finding the right technology vendors to partner with is crucial to the health of their business, and the vast array of choices can be overwhelming,” said Robert Faletra, CEO of The Channel Company. “Our annual Partner Program Guide and 5-Star ratings help them narrow the field, identifying the most rewarding partner programs and outlining their strengths and benefits.”

The 2017 Partner Program Guide will be featured in the April issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com/ppg.
