Skyhawk Security Launches Partner Program with MSSPs in Mind

Skyhawk Security has introduced a global partner program designed to equip MSSPs, MSPs, VARs, and cloud consultants with tools to deliver proactive cloud threat detection and response, reports Channel Futures. The initiative supports demand for solutions that reduce noise from security alerts and deliver actionable insights, enabling partners to help customers improve cloud security posture without overwhelming their SOCs. At the core is Skyhawk’s preemptive threat detection platform powered by its Continuous Autonomous Purple Team.

The program is structured to be flexible for different partner types, including those focused on referral business and full-stack service delivery. For MSSPs in particular, the model offers ways to scale detection and response without increasing SOC headcount. By automating simulated threat activity and validating exposures before they become breaches, partners can offer more value to clients with fewer resources and lower response times.

Skyhawk’s approach is anchored in continuous assessment of cloud environments, helping partners shift from reactive alert handling to real-time risk validation. Instead of traditional rule-based detection alone, the Autonomous Purple Team mimics attacker behavior to identify high-risk misconfigurations and attack paths. This reduces false positives and improves alignment between security activity and business outcomes.

To support adoption, Skyhawk is investing in regional support teams across North America and LATAM. The goal is to help partners deliver services that are not just efficient but also responsive to client environments. As more MSSPs move toward managed detection and response offerings tailored for the cloud, Skyhawk positions its partner ecosystem to close the gap between detection and prevention.
