Atos has expanded its long-running partnership with Fortinet, moving it from a country-led engagement model to a global one. The agreement covers reselling and managed cybersecurity services and aligns joint business development, client engagement, service delivery, and commercial terms worldwide.
Clients face escalating cyber threats and ransomware attacks, increasingly complex digital environments, expanding digital transformation programs, stricter regulatory requirements, and a persistent shortage of cybersecurity skills. The arrangement is intended to address these growing cybersecurity challenges on a worldwide basis.
Fortinet’s cybersecurity technologies and engagement support are combined with Atos’ managed security services, consulting, integration, and global delivery capabilities. The combined offering is described as improving protection and visibility across cloud and on-premises environments, simplifying security operations, and speeding threat detection and remediation. It complements Atos’ existing offerings in network security, SOC services, Zero Trust, cloud security, SASE architecture, and cyber resilience.
Günter Koinegg, global head of cybersecurity services at Atos, said: “Our expanded partnership with Fortinet aligns with our strategy to harness leading technology ecosystems to deliver integrated, outcome-driven solutions for our clients.”
Thomas Desrues, SVP channel sales international at Fortinet, said: “Elevating our long-standing partnership from a country-led model to a globally coordinated alliance builds on the strong complementarity between Atos’ expertise in digital transformation, systems integration, and managed security, and Fortinet’s leadership in cybersecurity innovation focusing on Secure Networking, Unified SASE and AI-Driven Security Operations.”
The agreement is expected to help organizations strengthen cyber resilience across hybrid and multi-cloud environments worldwide.
