The agreement applies to all vendor products.
The largest VAD distributor in the Russian market, Merlion, and UserGate, a leading Russian developer of the information security solutions ecosystem, have entered into a cooperation agreement.
UserGate provides its solutions for information security of corporate networks of organizations and enterprises, regardless of their scale and sphere of activity. The company's wide range of products, solutions and services form the UserGate SUMMA ecosystem, which allows us to offer the customer comprehensive protection against current cyber threats. All vendor products are created within the company using highly efficient development tools and methods. UserGate designs and manufactures its own chips and develops its own operating system UG OS, which allows it to produce solutions with high performance, reliability and trust level.
The Merlion's portfolio has been expanded with UserGate systems for protecting computer networks, data centers and other infrastructure from all kinds of Internet threats, illegal intrusion, targeted attacks, and violations of corporate policies.
UserGate solves the problem of protecting modern network infrastructure from various Internet threats associated with external attacks, malicious applications, scripts and other risks, and also allows applying granular policies to Internet users in terms of controlling both traffic and the applications used. By using a combination of a specially created and supported operating system and hardware devices designed in our own design bureau, UserGate solutions provide the greatest efficiency and speed of traffic processing.
"Entering into a distribution agreement with UserGate is an important event for us. The solutions of this leading player in the information security market are now in demand more than ever. According to experts in Izvestia, Russia last year became the ninth largest target for hackers in the world, and the number of attacked companies in the Russian Federation increased by 60% compared to 2023. UserGate offers the market a unique ecosystem of security technologies that are characterized by high levels of trust and performance. It is important that all products are created within the company.
Our technical specialists have already been trained and are ready to provide partners with expert support at all stages of sales. I am confident that the cooperation between Merlion and UserGate will be effective and fruitful", – says Evgeny Vasiliev, Director of the VAD (Value Added Distribution) Division at Merlion.
"The Russian market for information security tools is experiencing rapid growth. UserGagte, as one of the oldest and most experienced developers and manufacturers of NGFW solutions, still occupies a leading position in it and continues to develop rapidly. Partnership with Merlion, one of the largest Russian IT distributors, is a significant event not only for us, but for the entire market. We are confident that it will contribute to its development and saturation with high-performance and efficient domestic solutions that ensure the security of the digital infrastructure of both individual enterprises and organizations, as well as the state as a whole", – said Zenina, Director of Partner Relations at UserGate.
