“LogRhythm solutions truly enable organisations to support complex security requirements while providing the seamless user experience required of businesses today as they build out strategies to emerge stronger in the months ahead. We look forward to working closely with LogRhythm to strengthen and simplify the SIEM strategy of even more businesses in the future,” says Byrne.

The Instillery wins LogRhythm Best Growth Partner of the Year

The Instillery chief operations officer Jeremy Nees says that two years ago, the company forecasted demand for quality security services and best of breed tools.

“We identified LogRhythm as an ideal SIEM to provide us great functionality without complexity. This has helped fuel the rapid growth of our service. The Instillery has also gone on to acquire Wellington based privacy specialists TwoBlackLabs to offer the NZ market a unique proposition with combined security and privacy services.

LogRhythm's Simon Howe concludes, “We look forward to working with these companies as well as with all our partners to power the best security infrastructure for Australian and New Zealand enterprises in the year ahead.
