BlueVoyant and Xylos Announce Partnership to Deliver Managed Detection and Response

BRUSSELS, 1 August, 2022 — BlueVoyant, an industry-leading cyber defense company converging internal and external security, announced a new partnership with Xylos, an established Belgian technology consultancy, which will deliver BlueVoyant: Core MDR (Managed Detection & Response) services to organizations in Belgium.

The partnership adds to Xylos Modern Workplace and Hybrid Cloud services by including BlueVoyant Core: MDR to Belgian organizations. Core: MDR provides a complete Microsoft security-focused service portfolio, including a customized deployment of Microsoft security tools, ongoing management and maintenance, as well as 24x7 MDR, all of which help protect organizations from cyber threats and provide continuous security posture improvement.

“Relieving organizations from all digital burdens from A to Z of course means that we secure them optimally against cyber risks on a daily basis,” said Koen Hautekeete, chief technology officer and director of technology services at Xylos. “With BlueVoyant, we now provide an ultra accurate and consolidated view of those risks. This enables us to achieve razor-sharp detection and analysis of incidents. The result? Always timely detection of risks and incidents, and the perfect support for the right remedies.”

Of the partnership, Steve Dierckens, country director Belgium and Luxembourg said: ”As Xylos puts it so well: everything the company does is united by its belief in the power of people. I believe that is what makes Xylos the perfect fit for BlueVoyant as a partner. Cybersecurity is all about people and bringing together skills and expertise. With this new partnership, we now bring the extraordinary local expertise and experience of Xylos on Modern Workplace and Hybrid Cloud services, together with BlueVoyant’s best solutions for managed cyber security services. Our global team of experts will act as an extension of Xylos team.“

Additionally, Xylos will offer BlueVoyant Elements, which converges internal and external cyber defense capabilities into an outcomes-based, cloud-native platform, to its customers. This includes BlueVoyant Terrain: 3PR (Third-Party Cyber Risk Management) — a fully managed solution that rapidly identifies and resolves critical cyber security issues in customers’ third-party ecosystems; and BlueVoyant Sky: DRP (Digital Risk Protection), which detects and eliminates cyber threats before they impact your business and customers.

BlueVoyant’s partnership with Xylos is further evidence of its European investment plan to boost further business growth in the region, which is of strategic importance. It enables BlueVoyant to align with an increasing number of clients, who want to work with a locally established and trusted cyber security partner, in Belgium.
