Netpoleon adds Cofense anti-phishing security software

Security software platform vendor Cofense has appointed Netpoleon ANZ as its new distributor for Australia.

Cofense specialises in phishing detection and response that uses human insight and automation to stop active phishing attacks and reduce dwell time.

Netpoleon will provide Cofense’s comprehensive end-to-end solution, which helps MSSPs remediate phishing attacks.

“This is part of Netpoleon’s concerted effort to continually offer best of breed security solutions across Australia, and reinforce Cofense’s commitment to the channel community. The recent Cyberfish acquisition cements Cofense’s commitment to offering partners and customers best of breed phishing protection solution.”
