Forescout recognizes top partners amid training expansion

Cybersecurity visibility provider Forescout Technologies has elevated four partners to the highest tier of its reseller program, the platinum level, coinciding with a significant expansion of its training initiatives, as reported by Channeldive.

NTT Australia, Hitachi Sunway Information Systems Malaysia, DOR Information Technologies Israel, and Computacenter Germany were promoted to platinum status within Forescout's Envision Partner Program, based on sales volume and technical certifications. This move comes as Forescout has intensified its channel investments, with over 1,300 participants from partner organizations attending training events this year.

The company introduced a gamified training series called Mission:Possible in April, focusing on real customer challenges and practical business opportunities rather than traditional product-focused instruction. Forescout aims to train 2,000 partner organization personnel by the end of September, with ongoing initiatives including joint planning meetings and allowing partners to brand Forescout audits. Consulting firm Trace3 also saw advancement, moving to silver status, with a senior director noting the enablement and investment have improved client support and partnership possibilities.
