CRN 2024 Partner Program Guide
The Exabeam partner program is dedicated to evolving alongside a fast-paced security environment, where business partnerships are a critical component. Security teams must work smarter and faster, making analytics and automation critical.
For the 2024 Partner Program Guide, vendors underwent assessment based on program prerequisites and services, including partner training, pre- and post-sales support, marketing initiatives, technical assistance, and communication. The prestigious 5-star rating was awarded to companies that demonstrated exceptional dedication to fostering robust, lucrative, and successful channel partnerships.

About The Exabeam Channel Team
Our channel team works tirelessly to provide innovative and unique solutions to help our partners’ joint customers solve complex use cases with real-world security impact.
Over the last year, Exabeam and its channel team have achieved significant milestones. Earlier this year we debuted new AI-powered enhancements to the Exabeam Security Operations Platform with Threat Center and Exabeam Copilot. Threat Center enables partners to offer their customers a unified workbench for threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) that simplifies and centralizes security analyst workflows. Exabeam Copilot uses generative AI to help analysts quickly understand active threats and offers best practices for rapid response. These innovations greatly reduce learning curves for security analysts and accelerate productivity.
In 2024, we will continue to zero in on AI-driven security operations, with continuous innovation and upgrades on the Exabeam Security Operations Platform. As security teams are still challenged by legacy security operations products – many of which aren’t able to integrate with each other – channel partners who provide holistic solutions capable of processing massive amounts of security data will be in demand in the coming year.
About Channel Chiefs
