Censys is expanding its global Channel Partner Program with new go-to-market support, early access to its product roadmap, and additional enablement resources as the security vendor looks to build on rapid partner-led growth.

The company said its ecosystem now includes more than 100 channel partners across 45 countries, with partner-sourced bookings growing 186% year over year in the first half of 2026. The updated program adds a unified global framework, expanded regional support, and new resources designed to help partners build differentiated security offerings around Censys’ internet intelligence platform.

Censys expands partner GTM and enablement

The expanded channel partner program invests in people, platform, and regional support to help partners around the globe deliver these Censys capabilities to their customers and build differentiated security solutions and services.

The updated program gives partners new ways to innovate, differentiate, drive value, and accelerate growth. It includes:

  • One global partner framework: A global model across Censys’ distributor and reseller ecosystem with regional flexibility to support local market needs.
  • Partner-powered go-to-market: Censys is investing in demand generation, customer programs, and strategic initiatives to accelerate partner-led growth.
  • Early access: Partners gain early access to the Censys Internet Intelligence Platform roadmap, AI-driven capabilities, and upcoming innovations to help partners anticipate customer needs and bring differentiated solutions to market.
  • The Censys Partner Summit: This invite-only annual partner executive forum will focus on emerging threats, customer priorities, product innovation, and the future of internet intelligence.
  • The Internet Intelligence Launchpad: Enablement and SME support will help partners build solutions and deliver value to customers with Censys.

“AI is changing how organizations build, operate, and defend in cybersecurity, but AI without context is just automation,” said Censys CRO Sarah Ashburn. “To make accurate, real-time decisions, AI needs context from both internal systems and across the internet, and partners are essential to making that a reality.”

Censys expands regional channel organization

Censys’ partner ecosystem includes more than 100 channel partners across 45 countries, contributing to 186% year-over-year growth in partner-sourced bookings in H1 of 2026.

In support of this growth, Censys has expanded its global partner go-to-market organization to include new regional channel account managers to support partners in local markets.

“Most partner programs are built to manage partners. Our program is built to accelerate their success,” said Celestine Jahren, Vice President of Strategic Alliances and Channels at Censys. “Our Censys partners have a unique advantage – differentiated internet intelligence that makes the cybersecurity solutions they already deliver more valuable, while giving them new ways to serve as strategic advisors to their customers and drive value.”
