Introducing the StackHawk Alliance & Reseller Program: SHARP-ening our Channel Commitment
Blog post from StackHawk
StackHawk has launched the StackHawk Alliances & Reseller Program (SHARP) to emphasize a partner-driven approach in the rapidly evolving Application Security (AppSec) market. This initiative offers partners 30%+ margins, deal registration protection, NFR licenses for hands-on experience, and extensive training to enhance expertise, aiming to position them as trusted advisors rather than mere vendors. The company addresses the challenges posed by AI-accelerated development, which has increased code production and alert volumes, by focusing on runtime application and API security testing directly integrated into developers’ workflows. This approach is designed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio by identifying exploitable vulnerabilities quickly, allowing AppSec teams to prioritize meaningful threats over unexploitable alerts. StackHawk’s strategy, which includes application attack surface discovery, is seen as a strategic necessity in the AI-driven landscape, offering visibility and assurance to customers. The program is supported by partners like Defy, GuidePoint, Myriad360, Optiv, Trace3, and WWT, with the goal of advancing AppSec teams' capabilities amidst AI-era security challenges.
