TECHNOLOGY PARTNER HIGHLIGHT

Stellar Cyber helps streamline XDR operations, automate routine analyst tasks, and improve response efficiency, allowing SpearTip analysts to focus on the threats that matter most.

Cybersecurity requires more than sophisticated technology. Enterprises need a trusted partner that pairs advanced security platforms with skilled, experienced experts who can detect, investigate, and stop real-world attacks. This philosophy has guided SpearTip, a company of Zurich, since its founding in 2005.

SpearTip delivers end-to-end protection through three core capabilities: Advisory Services to mitigate and quantify risks, an active Security Operations Center to monitor and detect threats 24/7, and Rapid Incident Response to mitigate breaches, recover data and eliminate adversaries quickly.

People remain the greatest differentiator

While security technologies continue to evolve, SpearTip’s certified engineers and analysts work as an extension of each client's team, continuously monitoring environments, investigating threats, and taking decisive action when incidents occur. Human expertise remains central, and SpearTip uses AI-assisted response tools and multiple AI layers to strengthen the capabilities of its analysts and engineers.

Rather than simply forwarding alerts, SpearTip's experts actively respond and provide customers with detailed reporting that demonstrates exactly what was done to protect their environments. That operational focus is backed by years of incident response experience and deep knowledge of threat actor tactics.

SpearTip helps organizations strengthen their security posture by combining prevention, continuous monitoring, and rapid response, while reducing the burden on internal IT and security teams.

Scaling through partnerships

Technology partnership with Stellar Cyber has played an important role in helping the company scale capabilities. The partnership has helped SpearTip expand its XDR capabilities, streamline security operations, reduce routine administrative tasks to allow analysts spend more time investigating high-priority threats, accelerate response times for customers, and enable greater deployment flexibility and supported SpearTip's ongoing sales and marketing initiatives.

Executive perspective

“Toolsets are becoming commodities. Our differentiation comes from combining advanced security platforms with certified engineers and analysts who take action on behalf of our customers.”

DJ Hoeksema, head of managed security, SpearTip

Better reporting, clearer security outcomes

SpearTip continues to invest in improving the customer experience. The recent launch of its Valcor customer portal delivers enhanced reporting, greater operational visibility, and more efficient communication between clients and the security operations team.
