Trustwave achieves Microsoft FastTrack status in APAC region

Trustwave has achieved Microsoft FastTrack Ready partner status for Microsoft 365 and has been named a Microsoft Verified Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) solution provider for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.

Trustwave's recognition in the Microsoft FastTrack program allows it to assist clients with maximising Microsoft 365's potential, focusing on security, productivity, and ease of use. As part of the Microsoft Cloud Partner Program, Trustwave provides end-to-end onboarding and migration services, helping businesses transition to the cloud while maintaining robust security measures.

Jason Whyte, General Manager Asia Pacific at Trustwave, noted the significance of the achievement, stating, "Achieving Microsoft FastTrack Ready partner status in the APAC region is a testament to Trustwave's relentless focus on delivering value to our clients. This partnership gives businesses in Australia and the surrounding APAC markets access to a bespoke onboarding experience, coupled with our industry-leading security offerings that help safeguard their operations."

In addition to its FastTrack status, Trustwave's verification as a Microsoft Verified MXDR solution provider highlights its capability in working with Microsoft 365 Defender and Microsoft Sentinel. This allows Trustwave to offer businesses enhanced protection, supported by Microsoft's expertise in comprehensive detection and response solutions.

Grant Hutchons, Solution Engineering Director for Asia Pacific, expressed the importance of the MXDR solution, saying, "Trustwave's MXDR solution extends security beyond traditional detection systems, offering clients greater visibility and control across multiple threat vectors. This protection is critical for businesses across Australia and APAC, where cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated."

Trustwave has expanded its efforts since qualifying for the FastTrack program globally in September 2023, scaling its operations in APAC significantly. The company is rolling out its Microsoft Security catalogue of services, with numerous clients already receiving support in MXDR, Accelerators, and optimising E5 licensing.

As a longstanding member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA), Trustwave continues to provide security services integrated with Microsoft Azure Sentinel and Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP). This cooperation ensures businesses benefit from real-time threat detection, analysis, and response services that adhere to high industry standards.
